Megan Montgomery A few years ago, I started thinking about writing a cozy mystery set in the southern Maryland town of Solomons Island (a few miles from where I went to high school). As I started researching, I was growing increasingly uneasy about two things. First, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't envision a plausible motive for murder in a cozy setting. Second, I kept thinking about the history of the region itself and an entirely new plot surfaced that ended up as backbone to an epic 18th century historical fiction series--book one of which became my first manuscript.

After shelving that series (for now) I went back to write that cozy mystery--only I took out the mystery and just kept the stuff I really wanted to write--the romance, and Well . . . That Was Awkward was born.

It's kind of like a fanfic of my 1st novel.
