Jane Cleland’s Josie Prescott Antique Mysteries are just my cup of you know what. Her fiction is a treat, with savvy characters, a strong sense of place, clever plots, and the collectibles I love. Cleland is not only a talented writer but also a particularly generous one. She pens writing craft books that many of us swear by, and aspiring writers would do well to look up all of her books and follow her on social media. She even started offering free writing webinars during the pandemic.
