Writing the third in this gothic trilogy now. Spurred on by reviews of the first. It's quite a process as my memory is not what it was. Continuity errors are a very unique kind of writer's horror!

The more I write, the harder it is to get my books into some kind of order. Squeezing another into the bottom row soon, and one in the top. Still, in these mad times when humanity seems to be losing the plot, I have no trouble creating new ones. 😂 Best way to live. Stay creative!

Here I am on Bluesky, an author of 20 books feeling a little lost here with a whopping four followers. Reminds me of when I joined X many moons ago. Took years to build a following. Dearly hoping here doesn't go the way of there.
