Book 14 in the PIB series—Witch War in Westerham
Okay, so I'm a little late on this one. Witch War in Westerham was out on November 20th, 2020. My last post here was about book 10 in the series, so, yes, I'm slack as. Maybe one day I'll get my act together, but I doubt it. If only I was one of those super-organised...
Witch Cursed in Westerham, Book 10 in the PIB Series is Here!
Here I am, the most inconsistent blogger on the planet. I've been madly writing for the last year and a half to bring my Paranormal Investigation Bureau books into the world. Christmas has just been and gone, and the New Year is almost upon us. So, without further...

Paranormal Investigation Bureau Cozy Mystery Update
Hi, everyone! Yes, I know I've been a slack author by not updating my blog very often. After a question from a wonderful reader, I thought I'd better get my act together and let you all know what's happening with my cozy mystery series. So, here I am, writing whilst...

My New Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series is Almost Here!
I'm alive! Yes, it's official. I haven't blogged in a very long time, but it's only because life has been so busy. For those of you who don't know, I'm an editor, author, mother of two, I run Booktastik, and I'm a part-time property valuer, plus I help my husband run...
Holy Box Set Madness, Batman!
How awesome are ebooks? That was a rhetorical question, by the way. I remember when I was a teenager and paperbacks were the only form books came in. The cost to keep reading was significant, and, of course, when you finished a book and wanted the next one, you had to...
The Very Real Abuse of an Abused Fictional Character
When my content editor had finished her passes through my last novel, Tempering the Rose, she said, “You're quite brave choosing a central protagonist who's experienced such terrible abuse.” I didn’t know why she would say that. Now I do. I want to preface this blog...

My New Dark Epic Fantasy is Almost Here!
Yes, I'm slack. My new dark epic fantasy is coming out soon, and I haven't even done a cover reveal on my blog. Well, here it is, cover reveal, blurb, links, sample, all the juicy stuff. Drumroll ... may I introduce, Tempering the Rose. I will first thank the...

Writers’ Unleashed is Here! – Shire Writers’ Festival
Hey! Long time no post; I know. I've had things cooking in the background - namely the new comedy web series (not fantasy related) that I've written and am producing. But that's not the reason for this post — that's just my excuse for not posting for AGES. So, onto...
Looking Through Sad
Poetry isn't my best 'thing' but it's a wonderful way of exorcising intense feelings. I wrote this because someone I love is dying of cancer, a scenario all too common these days. I'm also sending hugs to everyone out there who has lost someone they love to...
