One week left to get My Darling Boy for 99p on Kindle! Thrilled with how it’s been climbing the charts, and with the reviews - thank you all so much! #BookTwitter amzn.eu/d/9o51rIU

Really looking forward to this year's Edge-Lit, talking about dystopian fiction & The Utopia of Us (published by Luna Press Publishing 🇮🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿) as well as the darkness inherent in fairy tales. And catching up with bookish friends will be most excellent! 😀

Well, this did not disappoint! A clever, unpredictable, twisty tale that had me racing through. Congratulations Callie Kazumi かずみ and thank you so much for the proof

Two days left to get my shocking thriller (see shocked readers below 🤣) My Darling Boy for 99p on Kindle amzn.eu/d/ji0s8Aa

Last day of the deal! Last chance to look like this as you are reading for a bargain price

Pleased to be on the Leicester Writes Short Story Prize longlist, which will be published as an anthology by Dahlia Books later this year. Congratulations to all fellow longlistees! leicesterwrites.co.uk/2024/08/10/202…

Our next Third Tuesday @Central event... As part of #ShortStorySeptember, join us for this exclusive short story salon to celebrate the Leicester Writes Short Story Prize. 📌Tuesday 17 Sept, 7pm at Leicester Central Library With authors Laura Besley Bekki Burns Laura Coleman

HUGE FAVOUR: I don't have a book contract or an agent right now. I'm juggling several jobs while I try to get another book deal. Reviews can help future sales. If anyone has time, I would LOVE more reviews, even if it's just one line!

This is so encouraging! Last year, I queried about 20 agents (in a couple of rounds) with a contemporary crime novel. Had 13 full requests and no offers! With my historical novels, I’ve been much more cautious, editing between small rounds of 5 queries at a time. #amquerying

Learn how to write a twisty, suspenseful thriller! Bestselling novelist Erin Kelly will show you how to hook your readers on Curtis Brown Creative’s 6-week Writing a Psychological Thriller online course. Enrol now for 19 Sept start date: bit.ly/4cyF2Aw

This sounds incredible!

First trade review of My Darling Boy in the US, from Kirkus, ahead of its publication there in December. I’ll take “vertigo-inducing denouement of Hitchcockian proportions” any day!!

We are thrilled to sponsor this prestigious prize! 📚 This year's incredible entries will be judged by Kiran Millwood Hargrave (Kiran Millwood Hargrave FRSL **UPDATES ONLY**), Leodora Darlington (Leodora Darlington), Candice Brathwaite, Dr Lindsay Traub and Dr Olivia Krauze (Olivia K.)
