The first book in an interconnected universe of characters, locations and stories. My last two releases are connected, and the final book is due in the autumn but this is where it started... let's go back to 1993 #bookreview #crimedrama #bookseries #WritingCommunity books2read.com/u/3nYRXR

It's super hard getting sales and reviews as an indie author and sometimes I wonder why we do it to ourselves. But the answer is actually very simple. We love writing more than anything. And when you do find a review it's like magic! books2read.com/u/4NNka6 #bookreviews #WritingCommuity #YAFiction

Just joined PinkSky Authors - I'd love to know how you're finding the transition from Meta to here, if that's what you've done. I'm aiming to ditch Meta entirely but feel like I need to build up elsewhere first. Here is the UBR to my latest release:https://books2read.com/u/4NNka6

Ada and Jesse. Massively reactive at one time, especially Ada. With patience and positivity they are so much better now and rarely react. So proud of them! #dogs #lurchers #sighthounds #bestfriends

The second book in the dark Fortune's Well trilogy is Project Pandora, and it's fair to say things get even more twisted for JJ and Darcie!
Evil doesn’t stay buried forever…

Needed to feel hopeful today after depressing myself with the news, so got outside in the rain and wind and planted my first seeds of the year #hope #gardening

Two years ago a violent act changed everything and everyone. A teenage pregnancy is the last thing Lou and Joe need.. The Mess of Us is the sequel to my debut The Mess of Me but can be read as a standalone! #newrelease #comingsoon #YAFiction #BookSky #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

Bumped into a lady with a camera on our way today, asked if looking for birds but she said no, I've just come to photograph the sunbeams through the mist and trees. She was so happy and smiley. Lovely vibe to her. We chatted and wished each other a good day. #sunshine #peace #goodvibes

Ada, one of my three lovely lurchers. Simultaneously the WORST and the BEST dog I've ever owned. Funny, quirky, complex, highly strung, controlling, super smart and incredibly loving. She's not easy but she's worth it! #dogs #lurchers
