Writing & Publishing – The Indie Route & My Personal Experience So Far

Indie publishing is becoming a huge thing nowadays, but honestly, it was always something I swore against. I have spent years querying my various YA fantasy novels, and although I’ve had some lovely feedback from different industry professionals, it hasn’t worked out that way for me. I attended a YALC event with a writer friendContinue reading “Writing & Publishing – The Indie Route & My Personal Experience So Far”

Book Review: The High Mountain Court by A.K Mulford

It’s been a while since I posted on this blog. This year has been intense so far! I’m constantly busy with work, swamped with freelance editing projects, or working on my debut novel, Steel Princess. (More news to come on that one very soon!) I have read quite a few books so far this year,Continue reading “Book Review: The High Mountain Court by A.K Mulford”

Book Review: “Girl, Serpent, Thorn” by Melissa Bashardoust

I have to admit, the gorgeous cover for this book was what gripped me and made me pick it up. (I suppose that’s what the cover is meant to do though, right?) But the immersive world-building, fast-paced plot and badass main character was what kept me in the book and made me want to keepContinue reading “Book Review: “Girl, Serpent, Thorn” by Melissa Bashardoust”

Book Review: “Torn” by Jasmine Watson

I’ve been friends with the author on TikTok for a while now, and thought the cover and premise of her debut novel were really interesting. So I got stuck in, and I enjoyed it. I found it quite hard to get through and a little slow in terms of the pacing at times, but thisContinue reading “Book Review: “Torn” by Jasmine Watson”

Book Review: An Heir Comes To Rise by C. C Penaranda

I’ve been seeing this author’s videos on TikTok quite a lot lately, so I was excited to get a hold of this one, along with a few other indie books I’ve seen on the site. I thought the cover was beautiful and as I was having my own book cover designed around the time IContinue reading “Book Review: An Heir Comes To Rise by C. C Penaranda”

Book Review: The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen

This was probably one of my favourite books of this year, although it was a little slow to get through at times. It has some wonderful world-building, a badass heroine with dark intentions, the enemies to lovers trope clearly woven through the story, and well thought out characters. The world-building is unique, with a KingdomContinue reading “Book Review: The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen”

This book has been nineContinue reading “2022 Writing & Publishing Goals”

Book Review: Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige

This book was an interesting take on the original tale.
