Take a twisty trip into 1840s Cambridge, where alchemy holds sway and a young undergraduate faces a Faustian bargain... dark academia meets feminist themes around selfhood and unchecked ambition. A feminist Faust for the modern reader from @galileobooks.bsky.social! uk.bookshop.org/p/books/maid...

New post on The Honest Editor about how to build back up from a disappointing book publication - why it happens and what you can do about it as an author 💖 honesteditor.substack.com/p/building-b...

Wrote a piece for @thebookseller about why we need more transparency in publishing 💚

Overnight flight from New York, straight into the publishers to sign a few hundred Death and Boules. Still going!

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #165345: Getting published is hard enough. But staying published is harder. The literary world is filled with once-successful authors who can't get a publishing deal any more. That's why it's important to stay in touch; keep flexible; change, when you have to.

I shall go on about this a lot. One of my books has been nominated for an Edgar by the MWA. Chuffed.

A big thank you to everyone who uses libraries, and who chose to borrow my books. Libraries are a vital part of any community.

Death and Papa Noël is now out on audiobook! Read by me, my Christmas novella is just long enough to cover your time in the kitchen doing Christmas day food prep! Parfait. #Audiobooks

Finishing your #novel? Some thoughts: - take out your beloved 1st chapter and see what happens? - read dialogue out loud. Would you want to act that part? - cut it until it bleeds - less is always more- fiction works as much by what is not said -no such thing as a minor character #writingcommunity
