CYBER-COMMUNITIES, REAL WORLD HUMANS
We love our cozy mystery communities, whether in person or online. It’s comforting to find others with like interests. I may not always visit my favorite sites, but when I need to connect, it’s good to know where to go.
If you want to work out, you might go to a gym.
If you want to relax, you walk in the park.
If you want to connect with your near and dear friends and family, you might pick up the phone.
Loyal readers and writers of cozy mysteries can do the same.

- Remember, there are real humans (hopefully) behind those comments you’re quick to click. Be kind.
- Sharing a love for cozy mysteries doesn’t mean you share the same perspective. Be respectful.
- Texting, calls, emails, and posts cannot fully convey emotion like in-person connections. Give others the benefit of the doubt.
- Forgive yourself and make amends if you are in error. Sorry is good, but change is better.
- Appreciate those who take their personal time to encourage, edify, or entreat with you on an online platform, regardless of whether you agree. Love the giver more than the gift.
