Where I've Been... and Where I'm Going

Hello, friends!

I am back from my hermitage in the Editing Cave. It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it?

For most of 2025 I was focused on 1) getting Nine-Tenths out into the world, and 2) prepping a handful of pitch packages and sample chapters of potential next works for my publisher W by Wattpad Books. They selected a project, and I spent the autumn and winter finishing it up and handing it over to them. It’s currently under consideration, which means every digit I have is crossed and I’m hoping I’ll be able to share some good news with you soon!

I had the very flattering opportunity to appear on twelve podcasts in 2025 and the first few months of 2026. If you missed any of the interviews, you can find them all here:

For fans of Nine-Tenths, I want to let you know that Dav and Colin’s story isn’t done just yet. I’ve got some other projects that I’m obligated to prioritize first, but I promise I haven’t forgotten them. In the meantime, if you’ve read the book and haven’t done so already, it would be so grateful if you would pop over to GoodReads (or your alternative favourite book-tracking site) and leave a review for the book. Thanks!

Right now I’m focused on completing a further two of those projects I pitched last year. The deadlines aren’t tight, so for now I have the luxury of working on one or the other as the mood strikes. The first is a sapphic gothic regency romance, and the second is a sapphic contemporary vampire romance. I hope I’m able to tell you more, and share some good news about them both, before the end of the year.

I’m delighted about the opportunity to spend some time in lady-love land, especially with all the buzz around season five of Bridgerton and the announcement that the next lead couple is going to be queer.

As ever, thanks for keeping me company on this wild ride we call being an author, and happy reading!
