My mental health hasn't been great for a while.

Now my month of cons is over, the book launch is done (and the woes of submission are ongoing), I'm going to take a bit of time get my MH back in order.

I'll still be working - books, BFS and Divergent Paths need work - but won't be around for a bit.

Publishing is weird & full of hidden lows and visible highs, but can I just take this wee moment to be extremely un-British and say 'hey I did a thing'?

6 books
5 awards
14 (I think?) award listings

It's been rocky & the road ahead is uncertain but this here is not too shabby, is it?

The Beastie Boys are an excellent listen for those of us who are terrible at remembering people's names.

1,300 copies of Magic, Maps, and Mischief sold since 24 October.

I always believed that there's a readership for this book but the response so far has been beyond what I thought I could do without a publisher. Thanks to *everyone* who has helped me from a word of encouragement to buying the book ❤️

At Southampton Airport waiting to go home after an excellent @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social

Spent time with friends old and new, listened to exciting plans and marvelled at all the creativity.

Already miss you all ❤️

Where this is reported to us we can/will investigate - there will be no tolerance for this kind of bullshit. Trans rights are human rights.
I have heard more than one report of Toilet Policing at @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social , whether by con attendees, hotel guests or staff is unclear. Just wanna say, if you're pro toilet policing fuck off before I block you.

I loved listening to this discussion about monarchies in fantasy fiction - including why we write them and how they relate to the chosen one trope. Featuring @hollyrace.bsky.social @davidgreenwriter.bsky.social @karisperring.bsky.social Karen Joy Fowler and Aliya Whiteley

We've sold out of Magic, Maps, and Mischief at The Syndicate table at @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social but I'm told we can still sell them and ship them to you!

Plus, loads of other amazing books at the table.

Thanks to everyone who made Maps a sell out!! 🦉
