Devoured this, #TheSequel to the equally incredible #ThePlot. It revolves around publishing, plagiarism, #amquerying, agents and editors. Throw in murder and stolen identities and you have two unputdownable novels! Read The Plot first!! #amreading #writingcommunity

Am I the only person who sees these packets and sings ‘seedless easy peelers’ to the tune of ‘Peaceful Easy Feeling’? I’m hoping not, but I’m guessing ‘yes’. 🤔

This year I’m going to be listening to more audiobooks (finding reading time is tough with a little one!), starting with The Perfect Guest by @ruthirons.bsky.social

Instead of Dry January, I’ve decided to do ‘Hygge January.’ Will it catch on?! Here’s my thinking: January can be a slump because the twinkle of Christmas is over - but so many of the joyful things associated with Christmastime can continue throughout winter … 1/4

I’d been getting a bit down about the number of fake author accounts on here - so I’ve been massively cheered up by the fact Keanu Reeves has just started following me!! I can’t wait to hear what investment opportunities he has for me 🥰❤️💰

I was about to leave a few books at our ramshackle little street library, then decided to wrap them as mystery gifts! 🎁 📚 #streetlibrary #amreading #booksky

4 years ago I had my first ever thing published - a short story in a children’s magazine ❤️ It’s been one helluva journey since then! 2 pieces of advice I would give new writers: explore different genres and story lengths … and send, send, send your work out! #writingcommunity #booksky

I’m in the market for some festive murder! Any recommendations of Christmassy mysteries? Last year I read P.D James’ ‘The Mistletoe Murder: and other stories’ and loved them. 🎄 🗡️ 🩸 ❄️ #booksky

Having spent most of the day ranting about fake author accounts, I’m spending some time talking about a real author! #ANovelMurder is out next June and it’s FAB! Funny, compelling, twisty, & set at an unsettlingly familiar crime writing festival. Authors will LOVE this! @evilevehall.bsky.social

‘Hanya Yanagihara’ has just blocked me for pointing out that her page is a fake author account. Thing is, they’ve got 1.5k followers now and lots of fans interacting and thinking it’s real. This really annoys me! I’ve reported if anyone else wants to too.

How I’m dealing with the fake author DMs.

Just got a bold DM: ‘Listen, pretty, you said you would publish your book next year. Maybe you don't know the meaning of a book trailer.’ And I don’t know whether to be annoyed or impressed by how much condescension they’ve crammed into 2 sentences. Anyone else inundated with ‘author services’?

Great advice here from Catherine! Querying and being on submission can feel more like a waiting game than a journey. But there are many things you can do while you wait!
