Just wrapped up a deep writing session- the first real one I’ve had in a long while- and it felt incredible to sink back into my WIP and lose track of time. #Writing #WIP #WritingCommunity #HorrorWriter

Stopped by Harry Hartog again- honestly one of my favourite bookstores in the city. It’s compact, but somehow you end up wandering the aisles like you’ve stepped into a maze made of stories. I never leave empty-handed, and I don’t think I ever will. #Bookstores #BookLovers

I think the best horror doesn’t ask what’s in the dark- it asks why we keep walking towards it. That’s the kind of story that stays with me long after the lights are back on. #Horror #HorrorCommunity #BookSky #DarkFiction #GothicFiction #DarkReads

Finally saw Black Phone 2- and some of those scenes instantly reminded me of Sinister. And honestly, you have to love the cult classic horror vibe of a story set at a camp. The isolation, the nostalgia, the creeping dread- it’s horror comfort food. 🍿 #HorrorMovies #HorrorCommunity #FilmTalk

My gothic YA debut has found its way onto the Waterstones and Barnes & Noble sites. 🖤 Not on shelves (yet!), but still such a surreal little milestone to see it listed. #Booksky #GothicHorror

The season of shadows has passed, but the darkness doesn’t disappear that easily. 🖤 The Crucifix- a YA gothic horror story about secrets, whispers, and the things we keep hidden. Link’s in my bio if you’d like to take a look. #booksky #gothicfiction #yabooks #darkreads #spookyreads #horrorlit

Writing Tip: It's important to be able to tune out distractions, but that can be hard to do. Don't just rely on soundproof headphones or a quiet house. Train yourself to be aware of your surroundings, but focused enough to determine what's important and what's not. #writing #writingtips #Booksky

Katherine has always gotten away with her sins. Cunning. Ruthless. Unrepentant. But the convent sees what she hides. And the crucifix is calling her darker self home. #YAGothic #Booksky #AmReading

She gripped the chair, eyes fixed on the towel-covered table. The torture documented in the notebooks flashed through her mind. Her knees wouldn’t stop shaking. Would you keep reading? #BookSky #SpookySeason #IndieAuthor

Just days away from the full cover reveal of The Crucifix. Until then, let me set the scene: 🩸 A convent that forgets no sin 🕯️ An orphanage where girls vanish 🖤 A crucifix that doesn’t bless- it reveals what’s already rotting inside YA Gothic Horror. Almost time.

A little slice of my book cover before the full reveal drops… 🕯️ Full cover coming soon 👀 #CoverReveal #YAGothic

I just got my book cover and I cannot wait to show you. It’s dark, haunting, and everything I hoped for. Stay tuned- I’ll be revealing it soon. 👁️✨ #CoverReveal #DebutAuthor #WritingCommunity

Went to the Lifeline Bookfest in Brisbane today- an absolute treasure trove of stories, from horror to history. It’s all for a good cause too. Beautifully run, well-organised, and just a joy to browse. Already planning next year! 📚❤️ #Brisbane #BookFest

🦴 It’s gothic horror, but not haunted mansions and whispering ghosts. The Crucifix is about the rot people hide. The mask of goodness. The evil you almost understand. Not what’s lurking in the dark- what’s already inside you. #GothicHorror #YAFiction #IndieAuthor

🖤 TITLE REVEAL 🖤 My debut YA gothic horror novel is called… 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐗 This story has haunted me for years. The title felt like naming a secret- something buried, waiting to be unearthed. Cover reveal is coming soon 👀 #TitleReveal #DebutAuthor #GothicHorror #BookSky

Wrote 1,000 words today. They’re not perfect, but they exist - and that’s enough. Writing a novel is chaos, but it’s mine. 📚🖤 #WritingLife #Writer #DebutAuthor

🧵 5 books that completely rewired my brain as a YA gothic horror writer 🖤 Some were weird, some were terrifying, all of them whispered: you can write like this too. Here’s what stuck with me- and maybe never left.

Chapter 25 nearly broke me. 😅 It’s the moment everything shifts for Katherine. Nailing the emotion took so many rewrites. Sometimes silence says more than dialogue. Writers: ever get stuck on just one scene? #AmWriting #WritersLife

After her parents’ death, Katherine was brought to the convent. But nothing here is holy. An organ plays in the chapel at night. Locked doors. A nun obsessed with a crucifix. Shadows stir- not just in the halls, but in Katherine herself. She may not survive the truth. #BookTeaser #GothicFiction

‘’There are always two sides to everyone…Some people are just good at keeping their sinful side hidden.’’ The story began with the convent- abandoned and full of secrets. I didn’t invent the story. I uncovered it, room by room. #GothicHorror #WritingCommunity #BehindTheScenes

I’m a lifelong horror enthusiast finally writing the book I’ve always wanted to read- full of dark characters and buried secrets. This story’s been living in my head for years, and now it’s coming to life! I’ll be sharing the behind the scenes, mistakes I make, and everything in between. Come along?

As a writer with bouts of imposter syndrome, I relate to this one hard. Putting it in #TTRPG terms makes so much sense to me. #writing #writingcommunity
