My spooky, autumn-vibes, pumpkin-spice-scented book has been in stores for one week! The perfect read for the ‘ber months! #thedarktimesofnimblenottingham #kidlit #horror #historical #BookTwitter

August 2025 Book Haul! September has already crept in. August really flew by, and I’ve had to start carrying a sweater due to falling temperatures. One of the best parts of August was getting a chance to buy some great books! stephsstoryspace.wordpress.com/2025/09/03/aug…

Now that my book is out, here’s my shout into the void: I’d like to go to conventions, book festivals, library events, bookstores, virtual events, appear on podcasts, talk to book clubs, appear Beetlejuice-style wherever a kid mentions they’re looking for a new fun, spooky book.

'The Dark Times of Nimble Nottingham' came out last week! Here's a fun black&white map of #London I had the pleasure of drawing for the book 😊 Penguin Random House 🐧🏠📚 Ryan James Black #fantasymap #bookmap #cartography #illustration #bookillustration #maps #mapart #citymap #londonmap
