Love that I live round the corner from this crazy, beautiful palace. It’s stunning at all times of day and night, but particularly lovely this morning.

ORIGINAL SINS - out now in paperback - is listed in the New York Times’ thrillers & mysteries - after being a pick of the week on publication last year! Almost 6 weeks sober so will celebrate with a sparkling elderflower 🍎 ❤️ 🍎

Our work has been stolen & used for the profit of a mega corporation. The creative industries in the UK alone are worth 125 billion a year - but their value in wellbeing, happiness, inspiration & education is far greater. We will be a much poorer country without them #dothewritething

Back home from India & on a journey of another kind - time for a bit of a mind/body cleanse, so am coming off the booze for a while. But there’s so much else to enjoy in my fabulous, crazy little corner of the world, so although it’s a big, slightly intimidating change I’m here for it!

Getting prepped for my upcoming historical (hysterical?) tour of Kolkata & Assam with @radiomukhers.bsky.social - and already irritated as I have to get up and write, when I want to stay in bed and continue reading… this is brilliant!!

Happy new year people! Hope 2025 brings you good things. According to my phone I was still ringing the new year in at 1.30am dancing to Insomnia by Faithless - DJ’d by the actual FAITHLESS! 😍 So am starting 2025 in my PJs with a Lord of the Rings epic & a sausage sandwich

Fantastic night with Fleetwood Mac (ok Rhiannon - but what a superb tribute band)

A little note to say a MASSIVE thank you to all the readers, booksellers, reviewers & bloggers who’ve supported my books this year. It’s hugely appreciated ❤️ 📕 ❤️ And big love to my wonderful fellow authors for their kind words - it means a lot.

Our annual pilgrimage to Glow Wild at Wakehurst Place. As magical as ever. Cocoons of light, ghost figures in misty groves, trees that change seasons in a moment, a dragon in a sea of fire, roots sparkling down into dark dells, whisper of birds & water.

Lovely few days up north - catching up with author friends at Newcastle Noir & then Scotland for snowy walks & fireside cocktails

Slipped back into the 90s at a ‘Spirit of Zap’ reunion rave. Smiley balloons, banging techno-trance, sweaty dancing, glow sticks & whistles - all inside the perfect rave venue of the British Engineerium. Kicking!

Went a bit mad booking shows at Brighton Theatre Royal. ELEKTRA (with Stockard Channing!) THE SHARK IS BROKEN (behind the scenes of one of my favourite movies, JAWS, with Ian Shaw as his father, who played Quint), ROCKY HORROR (classic), THE LION, THE WITCH & THE WARDROBE (one of my favourite books)

Throw back Thursday to the glory days when I had posters for my historical novels, and dragged my other half to glamorous locations like Victoria Station and Asda to see them (on his weekends off)

Never get bored of Brighton’s Royal Pavilion - gloriously, beautifully, majestically incongruous in all seasons!

When I was writing medieval novels as Robyn Young I did a lot of crazy research (sword fighting, horse riding, shooting black powder weapons) but the best times were the summers I spent working with birds of prey at medieval festivals. The Times did a piece with me & a very handsome buzzard.

All the cool older kids who’ve been hanging around here for months doodling on the walls, making the place their own - now watching us freshers come bundling in, wide-eyed with enthusiasm, peeking over shoulders to see if we’re in the ‘right’ Starter Packs

The office clear out continues - uncovered some blasts from the past on my publishing journey (photo shoots for The Times, The Scotsman, Elle Bulgaria & lunch with Spike 🧛🏼‍♂️ in Holland!)

Erin Young @erinyoungauthor.bsky.social · 22/09/2023

Clearing out my office ready for a house move. Mostly endless bills & statements for the shredder, but an occasional moment of stillness - a love note from my bf, ideas for novels that were never born, a birthday card from someone who’s now gone.
