"But in the trees here there are no mirrors, or others in whose glances I can see myself reflected, only the astringent cold stinging my eyes as the soft sweet smell of growth and decay." #SundaySentence At the Edge of the Woods, Kathryn Bromwich.

Some News! Thrilled to be able to announce my second novel, DISTORTION, will be published in spring 2027 by @twodollarradio.bsky.social in the US (There is also exciting UK publishing news to come closer to the time... but it's a secret) More info here: electricliterature.com/exclusive-co...
Book cover: Distortion: A Novel, by Kathryn Bromwich. Moody, Hitchockian image of a woman looking into a mirror with a crack in it, against an orange background. Blurb from Daisy Lafarge: "Distortion is an exquisite work: darkly gripping and sensuous, a Milgram experiment-esque horror meets Eyes Wide Shut"

The solitary figure looked up, feeling eyes on her, and there was a silent, immeasurable piece of time during which the two women saw one another, not smiling and not breathing, stopped by the same sensation. #SundaySentence, Pages for her. Sylvia Brownrigg.
