Hey everyone, we don't have to do that thing where you follow me back if I follow you. I'm just here to learn and sometimes comment enthusiastically. Hopefully no offense taken either way.

THREAD. After a tough few months (involving my ex-publisher Unbound ceasing to pay their authors, then disintegrating) I am enormously relieved to reveal Joe McLaren's fantastic cover for my 3rd novel.

The book will be published on September 11th.

I believe it's the best thing I've ever written.
