A glimpse into 2025!

These are a mix of projects that I'm either actively working on at the moment, or want to pay attention to over the next year

Pirates, dragons, mermaids, superheros, inventors and more await!

Defining genre is tough. But in the hearts of Ruarnon Trilogy's main characters lives hope, kindness, gentleness & optimism. This is the story of a bunch of misfits throwing themselves into danger to make the world a better place, and its Hopepunk af. (+ epic & portal YA Fantasy 😉)

♠️🌈📚🪐📚💙💕
Tradition ensures survival, but Tarlah's first nonbinary heir is about to defy it so their continent can live. In an age of abductions & betrayal, Ruarnon will risk everything to end cycles of war & death.

Lost, irreverent Aussies are their perfect allies.

BAKER THIEF and PAINTED FLOCK can each stand on their own, but they have a connected arc! While the 1st is more mystery and action oriented, the 2nd is an aftermath story, with thorny relationships and science!

I've been a reader my entire life

Stopped working in retail and said I'd never go back unless it was for books. Applied for a manager role, got an interview, was told they wanted me but not for that position

Four months later, I'm tapped on the shoulder for a manager role at a brand new store
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Trying to timeline revising Dragon WIP right now is WILD

I'm trying to factor in:
- Working retail in December
- Reading Phenomena stories
- General obligations
- Dodging burnout
- How fast I can actually do the thing

And I don't know whether I'm estimating too high or too low

Fuck this nonsense

I write for me, my little twists and turns of phrase are intentional. They set the scene and build it into something that feels tangible

Screw LLMs. Go down the wandering path and take your brain on a journey, it's more fun
Saw a post today that advised writers to stop writing as if a human will read it and start writing for an LLM that will be summarising.

As someone who really enjoyed trying to develop a peculiar but readable authorial voice, I find this incredibly depressing.

Me: this month I'm focusing on rewriting Dragon WIP and drafting my Cosmic Horror short story

Also me: smacks out nearly 5k of fanfic in 24 hours based on a conversation about a book series with a new friend

For Avery, it's her sibling, her best friend, and her guard - Adri, Tiernan, and Oliver

They're her base. The ones she knows will catch her when she falls and follow her into the chaos without a second thought, and she'd do the same for them in a heartbeat

On behalf of all self-published authors, I authorize you to reach out & tell us if you really enjoyed something we wrote.

We’re all dog-paddling in a sea of self-doubt & impostor syndrome & those little messages mean a lot.

Unless stated otherwise, our DMs/inboxes are always open for kind words 💞

I hope the next thing the universe throws at me is a sexy wizard knocking on my door in the middle of the night for a call to adventure, but the adventure is just living in a magical lakeside cottage where I have unlimited time and resources to write my weird stories

I made a Shakespeare joke in reference to my Pirates WIP and I think I may end up going on a dive to find audio adaptions of the plays to listen to

If anyone recommends any particular version, I thank you in advance!

I'm now permanently signed off from having to work.

But I'm a person who likes to keep busy (spoons, energy, medical appointments etc not withstanding) and I will keep writing until I'm no longer able.

Please keep buying, reading, reviewing and spreading the word about my books.
Sseeing as you all desperately want it to be autumn right now, I suppose it's acceptable to start promoting these 😂

My Pirates WIP has woken up and chosen to grab me by the collar and drag be back into that world

I am absolutely not complaining, I just wish it hadn't been at 5:30am 🤣
