Hear Me Cry Releasing January 2018

I’m delighted to finally be able to announce that my new fantasy romance novella Hear Me Cry will be released on the 25th of January 2018 as part of the Breaking the Myth Anthology. This anthology features 10 amazing authors and I am delighted to be part of it. I can’t give many details at the moment but as soon as promotions start I will be sure to let everyone know. For now, though, I thought I’d share the cover for my story, Hear Me Cry and tell you a little bit about it.

Lost Perfection Published on Visual Verse

I love the Visual Verse website. Every month they have a picture prompt and writers are asked to submit a 500-word piece based on the picture. Your objective is to give yourself an hour and then submit the piece using their online form. I find this a really useful creative exercise and have had a number of pieces published on their site. The picture prompt for December resulted in a poem called Lost Perfection which is now live on their website.

Finding Forever Wins Summer Indie Book Awards 2017

I am absolutely over the moon to be able to tell you that Finding Forever has won the Summer Indie Book Awards 2017 in the Thriller Category. I still don’t know how this happened. Okay, I do because it’s thank to everyone that voted, but it is something I never imagined happening when I picked up my pen last year and decided it was time to follow my dreams. Finding Forever was my first ever fiction piece and to have it pick up an award is just mind-blowing. I’d like to thank everyone who voted for my romantic suspense novella. You have no idea what this means to me.
