Yup, it’s been a LONG wait (sorry!) but the new Dark Dates book is finally out. You can buy it in paperback or for Kindle here. It’s a bit weird launching a book in a pandemic but I did have a couple of drinks to celebrate…

Pick me! *cough*) at […]
Delighted to receive a parcel today from my friend Jo, who runs Stella My Star, a woman-run small crafts business that does a fantastic range of geeky themed jewellery. As you may recall, she sent me a custom-made Dark Dates charm the other day but the package came open in the post – but, star […]
My life feels like a series of coming full circle at the moment – but, happily, in really nice ways. Moving home, reconnecting with old friends and my family, and now, with my work. Yes, I am super excited – and nervous – to announce that my first books are now available on Kindle for […]
