Murder At The Marina Now Available For Pre-Order & A Thank You



A dilapidated sailboat for your anniversary - not very romantic. Finding a dead body on board - even worse.

The first book in my new cozy mystery series, >>Murder at the Marina<<, is available now for pre-order at:

Amazon (US)
Amazon (CA)
Amazon (UK)
Barnes & Noble
Kobo
Apple iBooks
Google Play

If you pre-order, your ebook will be automatically delivered when >>Murder at the Marina<< is released on June 21, 2018. There'll also be a paperback version available closer to the release date.

You can also add >>Murder at the Marina<< to your "Want to Read" list on Goodreads. I'm starting to get some advance reviews over there, which is quite exciting.

Honestly, I can't believe I just typed the words, "my book is available for pre-order." I can't believe I actually wrote a book. Wow, just wow. Very exciting and very scary.

I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for all my blog followers. Here's what I said about you guys in the acknowledgements section of my book:

"The followers of my blog, The Cynical Sailor, have been a huge source of inspiration. Their kind words have been so encouraging, making me believe that someone might actually want to read a book published by me one day. I've been fortunate to have made good friends (virtual and in person) through the blogging community, for which I am very grateful."

Many, many thanks to all of you!

If you're interested in finding out more about >>Murder at the Marina<<, the first in the new >>Mollie McGhie Sailing Mystery<< series, check out the details below.

Blurb

Mollie McGhie is hoping for diamonds for her tenth wedding anniversary. Instead, her husband presents her with a dilapidated sailboat. Just one problem—she doesn’t know anything about boats, nor does she want to.

When Mollie discovers someone murdered on board, she hopes it will convince her husband that owning a boat is a bad idea. Unfortunately, he’s more determined than ever to fix the boat up and set out to sea.

Mollie finds herself drawn into the tight-knit community living at Palm Tree Marina in Coconut Cove, a small town on the Florida coast. She uncovers a crime ring dealing in stolen marine equipment, investigates an alien abduction, eats way too many chocolate bars, adopts a cat, and learns far more about sailing than she ever wanted to.

Can Mollie discover who the murderer is before her nosiness gets her killed?

Five Decidedly Unfrugal Things | August 2018

From time to time, I post about five frugal things we're doing to save money and keep our cruising kitty happy. {By the way, that's not the furry kind of cat, but rather what sailors call their savings. So cute.} Those posts are inspired by Katy at The Non-Consumer Advocate who regularly posts about five frugal things she's done. Some things are big, some things are small, but they all help keep her spending down and her savings up. Today, I thought I'd shake things up and share five decidedly unfrugal things I've done lately. Embracing a frugal lifestyle is about making conscious choices regarding where you spend your money. Sometimes those choices involve "splurging" on something. As you read my unfrugal things, keep in mind that what might be a splurge for one person is a normal expenditure for someone else and vice versa. 1 - Coloring Books & Markers Someone gave me an Amazon gift card and rather than spend it on something practical for the boa...

Saturday Spotlight | Sailing Book Reviews

In addition to the usual blog posts every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday about our eccentric travel adventures and day-to-day life living aboard a sailboat, I also occasionally post on Saturdays, focusing on things related to writing such as cover reveals, book launches, reviews, interviews with authors etc. So if you're a bit of a book nerd like I am, check in on Saturdays - you never know what might pop up. * * * Today, I'm featuring three sailing-related books focusing on quitting the rat race for a simpler existence living aboard a boat. Even if a sailing and cruising lifestyle isn't for you, you may find inspiration in these books to make changes in your own life and lead a life less "normal" and more fulfilling. LEAP OF FAITH: QUIT YOUR JOB AND LIVE ON A BOAT by Ed Robinson The author describes himself and his wife as carefree boat bums and beachcombers and in this book he tells you how they went about achieving a simpler life. He walks the reader thr...

Month In Numbers

Clockwise from upper left: (1) The coolest gift ever - a Lt Uhura finger puppet!; (2) Courtesy flags; (3) Paperback proof copies from KDP and Ingram Spark; (4) A gloomy day at the marina; (5) Hurricane season starts early with TS Alberto; and (6) Our friend Ted with some of the cute boat kids at the marina. It's time for the monthly recap in numbers, a collection of odd tidbits that popped into my head as I reflected on the month past. As usual, the month just zipped by. It's hard to believe that 31 days can evaporate so quickly. If I had to pick one word to characterize May, it would be >>rain<< . Lots and lots of rain. And that can only mean one thing. . .lots and lots of leaks. I had towels and bowls placed strategically around our boat. The bilge pump seemed to run constantly. {One of life's unsolved mysteries continues to be the source of the water draining into the bilge.} There were a couple of boating milestones during the month - one set of friends spla...
