On the eve of publication for THE AUSTEN CHRISTMAS MURDERS, I’m paying it forward by copying across all my book recommendations to Goodreads and Amazon. Do you write reviews/leave ratings?

On 20 Nov, author @jessicabull.bsky.social will be "In conversation" at @fourbearsbooks.bsky.social. Jessica will be presenting her Christmas Novella 'The Austen Christmas Murders', a cosy crime caper starring none other than Jane Austen as amateur sleuth. whatsonreading.com/venues/fourb...

She’s the daughter of Miss Havisham X Sweetpea! Dark, twisty and absolutely thrilling, I adored this second glimpse into the secret life of Charles Dickens’s most glittering heroine. Estella’s Fury by Barbara Havelock is out this week ✨✨✨

I’ve been wondering why my face is so red and puffy and contemplating eye bag surgery all day - then realised that, as one daffodil is blooming, it’s because I’ve already entered hayfever hell 😩

So I did a thing 😂 nypost.com/2025/02/23/l...

Has anyone tried any calming gummies for their dog? The cat and I have had enough.

Louise Morrish’s Women Of War shines a fascinating new light on women’s roles during the conflict. Inspired by true stories - it’s utterly gripping, so much so that I was holding my breath between chapters! A moving and intricately researched tale 👏

Syrie James combines page-turning gothic suspense with irresistible romance in her new Brontë-inspired murder mystery THE MYSTERIES OF PENDOWAR HALL. I loved the stormy Cornish setting, spooky tales of mermaids and smugglers, and all the nods to Jane Eyre in this masterclass of genre blending.

The RELIEF when discerning fans of Miss Austen Investigates enjoy A fortune Most Fatal 😅 Thank you @bexbookaholic.bsky.social for the most wonderful, thoughtful review.

My friend, Himani J Weir, makes gorgeous Georgian-inspired art. Yesterday she began sketching a portrait of this C18th harlot. Do you recognise her?

Preparing for something special today!

I’m so grateful to the incredibly talented @ianmooreauthor.bsky.social for this wonderful endorsement! A FORTUNE MOST FATAL, my follow-up to MISS AUSTEN INVESTIGATES, is now available to preorder, and request on Netgalley UK & US (links below).

Long story… but tomorrow I have a picture journalist coming round my house to take photo of me in regency. So now I have to tidy my house. I’ve managed one corner 😩

Everyone is talking about the unfair advantage of authors who have access to big name blurbs, but what my extremely loyal network of distant cousins?

Good afternoon Womble. I'm currently reading The Last One at the Wedding by Jason Rekulak and an ARC of A Fortune Most Fatal by @jessicabull.bsky.social , the second in her wonderful Miss Austen Investigates series.

Celebrating my gorgeous sister, Kelly’s, 50th 🥰 She’s my most ardent supporter, number one fan and compiler of the best ever eighties playlists. Thank you for always being there to encourage me to be brave, grab life with both hands and stick up for myself. Love you, sis 🥰🎉😘 #bestsisterever❤️

Toby and I have been testing the @waterstones.bsky.social dog-friendly policy while dropping off proofs of A FORTUNE MOST FATAL. Delighted to confirm they are most welcoming to furry friends, as well as authors! He even got to enjoy some carrot cake at Piccadilly 🐶
