Synopsis:

Death For Sale by Erik S. Meyers

A Sally Witherspoon Mystery

 

It's holiday time in Berry Springs, where many come together to enjoy good food, drink, and the company of friends. Unfortunately, death is among the mix as people get mysteriously ill at the town's Thanksgiving dinner. Deaths follow, and Sally must race to discover the truth before more people die off.

Coupled with worry for her aging parents, she is overwhelmed with the pressure and emotions, but she'll push through to solve the crimes and restore peace to the town.

Praise for Death For Sale:

"It’s always a delight to accompany amateur sleuth Sally Witherspoon as she takes time from her bar-owner job to bring murderers to justice. You’ve got to love a spunky middle-aged single woman who runs a biker bar and does a side hustle helping the local law enforcement solve serious crimes. The holiday setting of this third book in the series brings a touch of charm and festivity to the sadness the small town of Berry Springs experiences as some of their older citizens succumb to what appears to be intentional poisoning. Leave it to Sally to get answers in this difficult-to-solve murder case.
If you’re looking for a fun, holiday-themed cozy mystery, Death for Sale fits the bill perfectly. You’ll love spending time with lovable Sally Witherspoon as she restores peace and calm to her beloved town of Berry Springs. "
~ Ivanka Fear, author of the Blue Water Mysteries and Jake and Mallory Thrillers

Author Bio:

Erik S Meyers

Originally from Connecticut, I am an American abroad who has lived or worked in six countries on three continents, currently living in Vienna.

The author of the Sally Witherspoon murder mystery series, an award-winning adult LGBTQ Jewish historical fiction novel "Caged Time," a short story anthology "Connections," and a business book "The Accidental Change Agent." I also have written several short stories and a thriller/horror script.

I am represented by Cindy Bullard at Birch Literary.

Oh and I survive on coffee and hiking.





Interview:


  1. How long does it take you to write a book?

    1. The first draft usually takes 2-3 months with maybe 3-4 months more for editing/reworking.


    2. 2. What is your work schedule like when you're writing?

    Since writing is, at least for the moment, my side hustle, I write on Saturday and Sunday
    mostly in the morning right after breakfast.
  2. How do books get published?

    1. My mystery series is published by Level Best Books. I’ve self-published a few others.

  3. Where do you get your information or ideas for your books?

    1. Somewhere between everyday life and dreams

  4. When did you write your first book and how old were you?

  5. My first book was Caged Time, an historical fiction novel, which I started
    writing in March 2000. I finally self-published it in Feb 2021.
  6. What do you like to do when you're not writing?

    1. I love hiking and exploring, oh and playing board games

  7. What does your family think of your writing?

    1. They are very supportive! 

  8. How many books have you written? Which is your favorite?

  9. Besides my mystery series published by Level Best Books and Caged Time,
    I also self-published a short story anthology, Connections, and a business book,
    The AccidentalChange Agent. I have to say my Sally Witherspoon mystery series is my favorite.
    I’m working on finalizing book 4 at the moment and Sally and her world have really
    grown on me.
  10. Do you have any suggestions to help me become a better writer? If so, what are they?

  11. Write whenever you can, but don’t stress yourself that you have to say write 500
    words every day. A little goes a long way and you will be surprised at how this all
    comes together to be your manuscript. I also advise you to write what you want, how
    you want. There are way too many “experts” out there telling you to do this or not in writing.
    No, tell your story the way you want it to be. And don’t follow genre trends or what you think
    people want to read. Again, it is your story! 
  12. Do you hear from your readers much? What kinds of things do they say?

  13. I love the reviews, even if they aren’t all perfect. It’s wonderful to know someone
    has read your books and taken the time to review them. And I get good feedback
    on my amateur detective Sally Witherspoon with people telling me they can really
    identify with her.
  14. What do you think makes a good story?

  15. A clear path to the story, with each chapter connecting and leading to the next,
    no cliffhangers. And in mysteries, it is always important to drop clues throughout.
    Don’t suddenly have the detective come up with the solution using clues the reader
    didn’t know about.
  16. What would you like my readers to know?

I truly appreciate everyone who considers reading or has read my books. The support is such a wonderful

feeling.
