This crazy sci fi noir crime thriller is out today in the UK and I can't wait for you all to read it! Available in hardback, ebook, and audio from all reputable retailers (and probably some disreputable ones too!) If you can, support your local indie!

Hola mi gente! #writingcommunity we finally decided to come to Bluesky and will be hosting on both X and on here. Keep an eye on this page for the next coming weeks!

idk, felt cute might delete later. I can't believe this was wasted on a teams call.

Giveaway The Crooked Medium's Guide to Murder Repost this! "A spooky tale where little is as it seems. Forgery, false accusations, secret identities. Are old crimes coming home to roost? To solve a baffling murder, Mrs Ashton must look both sides of the grave" #booksky #reading #Victorian #books

This time last year I sat down with some pretty dark thoughts and a full novella gushed out of me in one giant bleed. Anyway, it's coming out via Tor Nightfire on May 12. You into infinite corridors, ancient hunger, isolation, cannibalism, self-loathing, etc.? Join me in the darkness next May.

Such a lovely poem in such a lovely issue!!

The fantastic cover of The Crooked Medium's Guide to Murder! Preorders open! I have a deep dive on getting this cover on website #booksky #mystery #spooky #sapphic #Victorian #murder #womensleuths #indieauthor #books #reading #amreading stephencox.co.uk/yes-judge-a-...

FERVOUR is 'Keep Sweet, Pray, & Obey' in the world of 'Wolf Hall' with the religious ecstasy of 'Matrix' and the devastation of 'Waco: American Apocalypse' Early readers are saying: "This is like reading a Bosch painting, in the best way." #questpit #AG #lf #hf

In the chaos of the Reformation, an ex-nun follows a doomsday prophet into a city of fervour, where faith becomes fanaticism, the sacred turns carnal, & a woman’s descent into religious ecstasy crowns her in complicity with the very abuse she once sought to end. #questpit #ag #lf

Set against the true events of the 16th Century Münster Rebellion, an ex-nun hears the voice of God and follows it into a radical new world. Crowned queen of an apocalyptic kingdom, she is both symbol and instrument until devotion turns to complicity, and the voice leads her to ruin. #bluepit #a #hs

Where does devotion end and delusion begin? An ex-nun follows a prophet of the apocalypse into the fever dream of the Münster Rebellion, set in Reformation era Holy Roman Empire. #bluepit #A #HS #LitFic #Agented

Reminder that I don't argue with fascists here, I block them. I also block people who whine that I won't listen to the fascists. Who gets to determine when someone is acting like a fascist and/or fascist book licker? Why, I do. If you don't like it, try not being a fascist and/or a boot licker.

Not sure why, when I’ve had grey at my temples since uni, I’m so shocked to discover grey eyebrow hairs as well, but here I am, surprised pikachu.

A small group of constituents went to John Cornyn's office in Dallas to express our opinion on the vote for Vought, and ask him to vote no. We were refused entry, door locked, and they refused to let us sign their visitors log.

When I was 25 I was sad I had not written The Great American Novel. At 55, I realize there's no Great American Novel, there are merely the stories I'm the best person to tell. Don't worry about how others see greatness. Work on being the best version of who you are and what you can do in the world.

How are we doing with our New Year’s resolutions? Because I wanted to eat more nutritionally and today I had a handful of M&Ms for breakfast and my toddler’s leftover cheese toast for lunch 👍🏻

My husband: “ah it’s nice to see you reading again. It’s been so long since you read a physical book.” Dear reader, it has been 2 weeks since I finished my last one. 😒

Pro tip: if a woman is holding a sword, don’t mansplain how to use a sword ESPECIALLY if you have never used a sword before.
