Atmospheric, haunting, and relentlessly unsettling, IT PIERCES is a chilling tale of guilt, folklore, and the darkness that violence leaves behind. In these ancient woods, no trespass goes unanswered. No sin goes unpunished. #Folkhorror #horrorbook

Alison has an invite to the prestigious Wetherby Institute... but a way in doesn’t mean there's a way back out.

When I was little I really wanted to live in Wetherby. I don't live anyone near it now, but that's not going to stop me visiting / setting my first trilogy there.

Literally everything we've come up with sounds silly 😂 Tbf the story did start off as a p*ss take but became more serious when I got into it.

What do you do when you absolutely cannot come up with a title for your book 🤷‍♀️😆 The working title is 'Vampires in Space' but it sounds more comedic than romantasy !!

It's just occurred to me that my office is like a 5 minute walk from a library. I don't think there's anything to stop me becoming a member even if I don't live there?! I usually read on KU and UK libraries don't carry indie though 🫠

Decided to put this on a promo for today and tomorrow 🥰

Books one and two are finished and edited. Book 3 is not moving along as quickly as it's have liked. Not sure if it's because I started a new job a few weeks ago 🤷🏻‍♀️ But hey, I'm already off zero and at £0.14 for the month with my others! 💪

My first book signing yesterday was amazing! So many people showed up and supported me. I was so busy that I only managed to snag a few photos.

People still like magic school stories right? 🙏 I have 2/3 of my dark academia books written and edited... But not seen any releases in this genre for a while.
