Award-winning author DARCY SCOTT (Best Mystery, 2013 Indie Book Awards; Silver Award, 2013 Readers Favorite Book Awards; Bronze Award, 2013 IPPY Awards; Winner, 2019 National Indie Excellence Awards) is a live-aboard sailor and experienced ocean cruiser who’s sailed to Grenada and back on a whim, island-hopped through the Caribbean, and been struck by lightning in the middle of the Gulf Stream. For all her wandering, her summer home and favorite cruising grounds remain along the coast of Maine—the history and rugged beauty of its sparsely populated out-islands serving as inspiration for much of her fiction, including Margel’s Madness and her popular Island Mystery Series.

Why Building a Dry-Laid Stone Wall is Like Writing a Novel

So okay, I’ve just finished building my first dry-laid stone wall, which I’ve decided is actually a lot like the process of writing a novel. First I divide and organize the raw material (rocks/manuscript notes) and make a general plan which I may or may not end up following. Then as I begin fitting things together, I place countless pieces I later rearrange or decide to save for another spot. Read more of this blog post »

Darcy Scott liked an answer from Jen Blood: How do you deal with writer’s block? I don't actually believe in writer's block -- I'm from the school where you either write or you don't write, and waiting for the Muse to whisper in your ear is career suicide. Personally, I sit my butt in the chair during the hours when I'm supposed See Jen’s answer. Jen Blood

Darcy Scott answered Goodreads's question: What are you currently working on? I've just finished the final edits of "Margel's Madness" which will be released this spring. It's a departure from my ongoing Island Mystery series, and is instead a work of women's regional fiction--a family drama set on the coast of Maine in which See Full Answer

Darcy Scott liked Harvee's review of Reese's Leap (Island Mystery Series, #2): "The story becomes quite suspenseful as events spin out of control for the five women who are vacationing on Mystery Island and who don't know the reason for being targeted by a strange intruder. A good plot, though improbable in parts, fuels the novel" Read more of this review »

Quotes by Darcy Scott

“who's this dub?" "Lawyer." Lawyer? I glance to Al for clarification but he's clearly as bewildered as I am. (argument amongst other fishermen) John heads toward the door, then turns, points to me. "You're alright. Only lawyer I ever seen could keep his yap shut longer than thirty seconds.”
― Darcy Scott, Matinicus
