Yesterday I was in Waterstones meeting up with a Scottish book blogger I have been following for a while. I’m always slightly nervous meeting bloggers – what if they don’t like me?! – even though on the rare occasions I have done so, they have all been a delight. And, of course, the same happened here: we […]

I was nervous about doing my first blog tour – what if everyone hated my book? What if they laughed at my very presumption in trying to get them to review it? Partly for reasons of anxiety, I went with Random Things Blog Tours, which is run by book blogging maven Anne Cater – I […]
I am super excited to announce that I will be doing a Random Things Blog Tour for the relaunched The Bridesmaid Blues in August, so do look out for me at these lovely bloggers… Thanks so much to Anne Cater for organising and all the lovely bloggers taking part!
Book bloggers are, in my opinion, some of the most generous people you could come across – selfless not only in promoting authors, but also in supporting one another. But, as this often comes in the form of sharing one another’s posts / reviews on Twitter, this can cause problems: the notorious ‘Twitter jail’, or […]

If you didn’t want readers to connect with your writing, you wouldn’t put it out there, and the validation that comes with a good review can’t be overstated. […]
Been a busy few weeks on the Dark Dates promo front, but been doing a lot of fun stuff: including getting to talk about some of my favourite things – notebooks and New York! Jera’s Jamboree is doing a stationery love feature that I was delighted to be part of – you know I love […]
The festive season and a busy January has seen me behind in these so far, but I’ve had a busy few weeks on the web! Thanks as ever to all the wonderful bloggers and reviewers kind enough to feature my books! First off, I got some lovely reviews: Nerdish Mum gave me a lovely 5* review […]
2016 has been such a raving dumpster fire that I occasionally have to remind myself it wasn’t all bad, and that some good things did indeed happen. For me, one of those things was the release of the latest in the Dark Dates series – Angel Falls, the sequel to Wolf Night, and a collection […]
