What a wonderful story! This book had both witchy and fairytale vibes – two things I am all for. It also very much reminds me of my current WIP, a witchy story that retells Snow White, so it was strange to read this at the same time, but I absolutely loved it. So as theContinue reading “Book Review: “Twin Crowns” by Katherine Webber & Catherine Doyle”

Book Review: “House Of Lies & Sorrow” by Emily Blackwood
This book was wonderful! I’ve been watching the author’s TikTok videos for a while now and I was intrigued by her cover and her little teaser snippets of the story. She made it clear that this book was an enemies to lovers (which I’m currently obsessed with!), with no spice but lots of tension. IfContinue reading “Book Review: “House Of Lies & Sorrow” by Emily Blackwood”

Book Review: From The Mouths Of Sirens by Abigail Hair
Yet another Booktok recommendation from a lovely indie author! She also designed the map for my book. I thoroughly enjoyed this book – I think it’s one of the best retellings I’ve read in a while. Do you love The Little Mermaid, and do you also love The Hunger Games? Because if you do, you’reContinue reading “Book Review: From The Mouths Of Sirens by Abigail Hair”
Working On Multiple Projects At Once: Drafting Book 2 & Planning A Rewrite For An Old Project
This isn’t how I usually like to do things, but strangely I’m loving the process this time. Even when I studied Creative Writing at university and we had to deliver multiple creative pieces within a short time frame, I struggled with handling more than one at a time. I think I’m coming to realise thatContinue reading “Working On Multiple Projects At Once: Drafting Book 2 & Planning A Rewrite For An Old Project”
TikTok As A Marketing Tool For Authors
TikTok is great fun – it’s full of trending sounds that can make you laugh, stir emotion and more. But when you’re trying to relate videos to your own niche, it’s a brilliant resource. I’ve been using TikTok as a writer for over a year now, and I love finding great author and reader friendsContinue reading “TikTok As A Marketing Tool For Authors”
Holding Myself Accountable – New Content Schedules!
We all have to do it sometimes, right? I don’t know about you, but I find it very difficult to motivate myself to create content if I don’t have a schedule in my weekly planner. So this is what I’m going to be doing from now on. I have a book coming out in justContinue reading “Holding Myself Accountable – New Content Schedules!”
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”
