Yellow clothing/clothing items have historically marked stigma against various marginalized groups as far back as at least The Middle Ages, yet it has also been a symbol of royalty.

Yellow has such an intensely complicated history throughout the world—like any color, I suppose. In Victorian times, it was seen as a shade of rebellion against repression, but also as a color of contamination—Oscar Wilde was shamed in headlines for carrying a “yellow book” when he was arrested.

It’s release day! I am all official. For the first time in my life I don’t just have a book out, I have an audiobook! It’s in stores I have never spoken to—yesterday it was on the Netgalley homepage! It’s been featured in the Library Journal and I have multiple upcoming appearances in just October!

Giggling. Remembering when I had to QA movie packages for work and make sure things like this didn’t happen. It was tedious. But it still hilarious when studios would send a package with this kind of mistake. If the cast of Saved By The Bell had to recreate Saved! Who would be who?

Hey look, Temu is ripping off my book cover! Does this mean we've made it? If you want to buy the book for real and support me, my publisher, and THE AMAZING ARTIST WHO DESIGNED THIS COVER (Lisa Perrin), you should buy the book, not this stolen junk. fablesandfanciesbooks.com/item/-Az7-_I...

In regards to sales, lists and acknowledgement would be cool but more than anything I’d love for The Hearth Witch’s Guide to Magic & Murder to reach enough people that my publisher says, “ah heck yeah, give us two more.” (Book 2 is already slotted for 2026)

Art by Lisa Wiley, commissioned by my publisher. The first time Avery and Saga meet. I can’t share the full image without my publisher’s watermark, but I wanted to tease it where you could just focus on their faces first. #booksky #fantasybooks #lgbtqbooks

I love the weird little footnotes I got to put throughout The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic & Murder (available Oct 7th). #books #fantasybooks

A grimoire, herbs, moss and mushroom background, overlayed with a piece of paper that reads, "...while intention over language is key in working with magic, even Archfey have found German to be particularly commanding, especially when breaking a curse or even waking the dead. It has been noted that nine out of ten necromancers prefer German."

Kiri Callaghan @kiricallaghan.com · 30/07/2025

The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic & Murder does not include an animal companion officially. But it does have Riddle, whom despite not being able to say anything, seems to beam this energy at my Sherlock CONSTANTLY. www.kiricallaghan.com/the-hemlock-...

While very much its own story, The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic and Murder will contain a few hommages to Sherlock Holmes along the way, and no Sherlock story would be complete without a Watson.

The first publisher I ever worked with is closing its doors forever at the end of the month, and the owner is retiring. There may be a small gap in availability for Alys and Changeling while I transition them. Until then, you can get them as a set on sale: doceblantstore.com/collections/...

I did it myself using canva, so I'm behind on this trend, but here's me as an action figure! Complete with debut book, pen, Calcifer, a grimoire, a full afternoon tea tray and tea cup.
