I have been honoured to meet the incredible Dame Jilly more than once during my time with Redwings - the most vibrant, wonderful lady who always had us in stitches. So very sad to hear of her passing this weekend, my condolences are with her family, friends and all her publishing colleagues too ❤️‍🩹

Not ‘Stephen Samson’/‘Stephen Concept’ from Amazon just sending my own blurb for my book back to me. Why Stephen, why? And do you even know your own surname? #authorspam 🤣

It’s happened! The very first animal reader for my brand-new book 🐾 ❤️ Beautiful Gracie here in her Autumn jumper and her lovely mum Rachel are settling down this evening to read The Day After Christmas - isn’t Gracie just gorgeous? amzn.eu/d/gPhENyq #christmasreads ❤️ 🎄 🫏

For those who may think @stephenking.bsky.social’s famous rejection spike is apocryphal, it’s really not. This book is everything, by the way, packed full of incredible advice. Mainly, keep writing, keep writing, keep writing. ✍️ #amwriting #onwriting

Erm okay then 🤷‍♀️🙄 #authorspam

My #TuesNews is that my next book is open for preorders! A sequel to The Night Before Christmas, it features disastrous family reunions, the wedding from Hell and one very unexpected donkey! 😍🎄❤️🫏 Order now geni.us/TheDayAfterC... @romanticnovelists.bsky.social @bloodhoundbooks.bsky.social

Seems legit from the CWA What gave it away I wonder? Was it the fact that they just happen to have a Dagger Liaison person named ‘Dagger Liaison’? Or was it perhaps the fact that I don’t write crime? It’s a mystery 🤷‍♀️ 🧐 #authorspam

This looks so good from @thomasruyssmith.com #holidaysarecoming ❤️🎄

*Cover reveal* I’m beyond delighted to show you the cover for my brand-new book The Day After Christmas! Yes, Felicity Brooks is back and this time she’s dealing with family secrets, the wedding from hell and one very unexpected donkey! Preorder now geni.us/TheDayAfterC... #romcom #newbook

I mean the #authorspam just gets worse and worse 😆 [insert genre here] ✍️

There are few things more exciting in life to me than the blank page and all the possibilities a new story can bring. Today I started something completely new… I really hope you’re going to love it as much as I do! Oh. And it’s not a Christmas book… #romcom #romance #amwriting

So nice to meet you!

Dear random person on TikTok/X/IG. Why would I trust you to make a ‘tantalising video preview’ of my novel when you a) haven’t read it and b) can’t even work out if it’s for sale on Amazon/Barnes & Noble without messaging me directly to ask? #booksky #IYKYK #authorspam #hellokeanu
