In 10th century England, vikings shifted from coastal raids to outright conquest. Now, imagine if the fae broke through their banishment at the same time, returning to a world which had forgotten them, hell-bent on vengeance. This is the premise of my book series. bit.ly/3GjTB0U

An update on the BLACK STONE HEART Insanity Edition Kickstarter! And if you missed the campaign, the Late Backer Store is still open! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bla...

Our Black Friday offers will be going live later this week! We have some great deals coming, from discounts to free shipping on certain products. Full details to come soon, stay tuned 👀💚

Looking at the final stages of prep on the cover of the special edition of Fae: The Wild Hunt. This #kickstarter is going to be insane. Can’t decide if I’m excited or terrified. #authors #booksky #fantasybooks

I keep hearing about Arcane. It’s been on the edge of my TV radar for months but I get sucked into other things like Penguin. I’m in a massive binge of The Walking Dead right now, tell me why I should cheat on it with #Arcane.

If you somehow missed me shouting about the BLACK STONE HEART Insanity Edition Kickstarter, it's not too late! The late backer store is still open! black-stone-heart-insanity-edition.pledgebox.com/preorder

The pair of idiot cats I Iive with haven’t worked out the cat flap yet. One thinks it’s a toy. The other suspects it’s some kind of elaborate trap. Show me your furry friends and tell me the stupidest thing they’ve done lately.

First off I'm going to talk about my website, Read Indie Fantasy .com! This is a blog all about promoting indie and self-published SFF (fantasy, sci-fi, horror, so long as it's speculative) and I'd urge you to check it out! It's ran by myself and @svrtnsse.bsky.social www.readindiefantasy.com

Last night I learned that the narrator of one of my audiobooks had a part in an episode of Supernatural. Who knew!?

I was always a book nerd. I found a love of reading fantasy in my father’s bookshelf, then went into libraries hungry for more. I started with Lloyd Alexander and then to David Eddings and Weis and Hickman. Now I write my own. What was you fantasy reading journey? 💙📚 #books #booksky #fantasybooks
