\"\"Jill Piscitello is a teacher with a passion for writing and an avid fan of multiple literary genres. Although she divides her reading hours among several books at a time, a lighthearted story offering an escape from the real world can always be found on her nightstand.<\/p>\n

A native of New England, Jill lives with her family and three well-loved cats. When not planning lessons or reading and writing, she can be found spending time with her family, traveling, and going on light hikes. Jill loves to try out new restaurants, but if truth be told, she will order a chicken Caesar salad wrap whenever possible.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m delighted to be talking with multi-talented author Jill Piscitello. Today she is going to share with us a bit about her writing life and her new release.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jann: When did you first know you wanted to be a writer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>I enjoyed crafting stories as soon as I learned how to read. But it wasn\u2019t until middle school that I considered the possibility of writing as a career. From a very young age, I had the voice of practicality ringing in my ears and went off in search of job choices more likely to pay the bills. Although writing still happened regularly, my first queries weren\u2019t sent until I was well into my 40s.<\/p>\n

Jann: What is your favorite genre to write? Tell us a little about your journey to publication.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>Cozy mystery is my favorite genre to write. These books lend themselves well to series and allow me to follow a charming cast of characters as they develop over time. My first two published books were sweet, holiday romances. I love everything about Christmas and had so much fun writing both stories. Then I realized that a cozy mystery would allow me the best of both worlds in the form of a whodunit with a dash of romance.<\/p>\n

Jill: Do you have to research a lot before you start writing your novels?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>Research is key for so many pieces of every story. Pouring through resources is one of my favorite parts of the writing process. How to use the information is its own skill. For example, as a fiction reader, I\u2019m not looking for a history lesson but want to feel like I\u2019ve been dropped into a world set in during a specific time period.<\/p>\n

Jann: How important is setting, theme and plot in your stories? Which one comes first when you start to write.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>I suppose the answer to this question depends on the story. Setting plays a huge role in the beginning. I love writing about beautiful places. The theme usually presents itself right away, but the plot is a work in progress until the final page is written.<\/p>\n

Jann: June 26, 2023, A Sour Note<\/em> made its debut. What challenges did you set for your main character\"\" Maeve Cleary?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>Maeve is a risk taker plagued by anxiety when things don\u2019t go according to plan. She is learning to accept the highs and lows as learning curves, not mistakes. What\u2019s life without a few risks? After quitting her job with zero prospects in sight and a shattered engagement, she returns to her childhood home. The discovery of a corpse, frivolous accusations, and navigating unsolicited advice from her type A mother and a clairvoyant cousin provide a welcome diversion from her upended personal life.<\/p>\n

Jann: Where did the inspiration come from for A Sour Note<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>My family and I vacation in Hampton Beach, NH every summer. A few years ago, I was walking along a stretch of beach with a view of the ocean and some stunning beach homes and realized how perfect the location was for my cozy mystery. Next, I needed to figure out a unique profession for my sleuth that would allow her the time needed to solve a mystery. When I heard about a local business offering music lessons and year-round performance opportunities, a rush of plot ideas revolving around various venues took shape.<\/p>\n

Jann: <\/strong>What are you working on now? Can you tell us about your next project?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>I\u2019m currently working on the sequel to A Sour Note. The setting will remain in Hampton Beach, NH, but the new story will take place during the fall. I\u2019m looking forward to experiencing the beach town outside the tourist season.<\/p>\n

Jann: Where can we get your books?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jann: What\u2019s your favorite movie?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jill: <\/strong>I adore It\u2019s a Wonderful Life. The timeless message of everyone\u2019s individual importance in this world, the close-knit community, and the cast warm my heart year after year. And I\u2019ll opt for the black and white version every time.<\/p>\n

Thanks Jill for sharing with us today. Good Luck with A Sour Note<\/em> and I will be looking forward to the sequel. Happy Summer!!<\/strong><\/p>\n
