This album still hurts
You know what the new year means, right? A new round of album anniversaries and January's chock full of 'em! 34 years this week, Tori shook off the shackles of Y Kant Tori read and released her debut solo album, Little Earthquakes and the rest, as they say, is history!

#Booksky, if you're curious about my debut short story collection, you can read a sample here, which includes the entire first story: read.amazon.com.au/sample/B0DRG...
It's called ALL MY PRETTIES & the reviews always mention this one. It's about the woods & creepy dolls... Hansel & Gretel vibes.

It's not great having to ask for help - but if you've enjoyed any of our books, we'd be hugely grateful if you could let people know about them (and where you can buy them)
Word of mouth is... pretty important, right now
