Welsh author crafting witchy romantic fantasy to stir the soul. Book 4 arrives in 2025.

I talk about finding the courage to write, learning the cello in my fifth decade, my love of plants and nature, and why animals are my favourite people. ✨
Oh look! It’s me! 😆🙏🏻 Thank you @britfantasysoc.bsky.social
Every Friday, we meet a BFS member & peer deep into their soul. Today we're getting witchy with @elwilliamsauthor.bsky.social: she names Joanne Harris as her genre hero, which is logical when you hear how she describes her stories...

Everyone’s a critic.
But what if the critic is a close, much-loved friend?
And what if the target of their disdain is your first, precious manuscript?

What began as research for my next book became an unexpected act of rewilding myself. #writing #booksky

🤯 You know you should exercise more, but you don’t.
🤯 You want to write more, but you don’t.
🤯 You know you should market your books, but… yeah, same.
I’ve figured out a few sneaky ways to work around myself, because resistance is real, and willpower is seriously overrated. #BOOKSKY #writing #books

Something magical happened when I:

✨ stopped waiting to feel like a writer
✨ pulled out of the‘you are a writer’ race
✨ accepted that everyone is good enough to try—including me.

Sometimes we're up. Sometimes we're down. And why I believe that's a good thing. #booksky #writingcommunity #author

Now for a rest before I dive back in.

Today we walked to a local craft fair, bought a few gifts to support local makers and then borrowed books from the library. Sometimes resistance comes in the shape of small acts - but it still matters!

Monday I showed up to an exercise class 15 mins late.
Today, a beauty appointment a week early.
This is SO not me. Any thoughts on what the Universe might be trying to tell me?

Look what my amazing stepdaughter painted for my birthday! And there’s space for book four 🥰🙏🏻 #booksky #writingcommunity

I reread the novel I began writing 15 years ago & published in 2020. I get why readers called it eerily predictive, but the writing was on the wall for a long time, wasn't it?

A Reader Called My Novel 'Eerily Predictive'

My days are bookended by visits from the robin.

The first to arrive at the window feeder to claim a pre-dawn breakfast, & the only bird to take their supper here too.

I rarely see them, but I nearly always get a song. What a gift. 🥰

Took our granddog to Waterstones today. His first trip to a bookshop. He was very excited! Oh wait, that was me! 😂🥰

Happy Valentine’s Day, lovelies. 💛

Love isn’t just for partners or ourselves—it’s for the Earth too. We are nature. So when we talk about self-love, let’s include love for the planet and all who call it home.

Love grows when we share it—let’s spread it far and wide. 🌿💫🧡

100% yes! #booksky
If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.” – Haruki Murakami.
The best fiction isn’t just about escape—it’s about finding new ways to think, dream, and question the world around us. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

This popped up in my memories today. I was so moved by Amanda Gorman's beautiful poem that I made this graphic & then my lovely stepdaugher framed it for me as a gift. It feels like a good time to remember it. #booksky #staypositive

Struggling to write? I was too. But the answer was easier than I imagined. #booksky #writing #author
