Cozy Royalties gives you everything you need to break into this profitable subgenre.
The cozy mystery word search puzzle book is a hybrid format: a full mystery story with themed puzzles after each chapter. Readers solve the puzzles and the mystery side by side, binge entire series in a weekend, and come back for the next book.
Unlock Cozy RoyaltiesI've been publishing into the cozy mystery word search puzzle book sub-niche for a while now, and it's quietly become one of the most reliable royalty streams in my catalog.
It's a hybrid format: a full cozy mystery story with themed puzzles after every chapter. Readers solve the puzzles and the mystery together. They binge entire series in a weekend, leave 5-star reviews, and pre-order Book 2 before you've finished writing it.
The format isn't a fad. Simon & Schuster's Cranberry Creek Word Search Mystery series is a USA TODAY bestseller in exactly this format, which is proof the appetite is mainstream and growing. And the indie shelf? Still wide open. Plenty of room for new authors to publish in, build a series, and earn.
Demand is proven, the format is growing in popularity, and competition is still very low.
Already write cozy mystery? This is additive.
Cozy Royalties isn't asking you to abandon your existing series. The hybrid format slots into the catalog you already have. It's a second income stream that multiplies the cozy work you're already doing.
Cozy mystery readers are willing to pay more for the added experience of a story + puzzle book. One cozy puzzle book could easily outsell all your existing cozies, without competing with them.
