Decided I was going to focus on writing novellas for the next few years.

Started a short story collection, want to write my own curriculum for a film analysis book I want to write, came up with an script idea for a feature film I want to work on with a filmmaker I know…

Genuinely the worst draft of anything I've ever written, but the 2nd POV of Verden is done. First draft is 50% complete! Got a LOT of work to do in the next draft, but you can't fix a book that doesn't exist...

Made a commitment to my cohort in Sweden, and hoping people will keep me accountable here.

CATFOOD pre-orders and the ARC sign up form will be live on 30th March.

Still can't believe that I grew up wanting to be a published writer, and now I have two published books in my hands, with another release coming out later this year.

A week after taking this picture in Norway, I fell into a horrific depression after being diagnosed with an incurable genetic condition.

I started writing Hypochondria a week after, and now that little novella is loose on the world.

I'm sure no one knows by now but I released a book last month.

It's a chronic illness horror novella based on my own experiences, and probably the most personal thing I've ever written. I'm very proud of it.

Available in the normal places.

Have found myself really homesick for my first uni city, Winchester, since starting the masters degree. Might need to go for a visit.

I’m just gonna put it out there; if anyone’s writing a character with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder/Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, I’m always happy to have a chat or help beta read.

Sarah is holding up two books: Amissis Liberis and Hypochondria. Amissis Liberis has a dark cover, with a ripped paper effect showing a dark mansion. Hypochondria has a picture of a woman stretching, her back to the camera, with a ripper paper effect showing the title.
