#Action, #Drama , #secrets and... sarcasm? The Secrets Series is a #thriller trilogy that focuses on a family at war with the Russian mafia... but the narration is snarky. Sound exciting? amazon.com/gp/product/B... Trying to get this seen by #BookSky and the #WritingCommunity ⚡📚💙📚

I think I've figured you out now, Mr. Al Gorithm's weird Bluesky cousin... I need to use #WritingCommunity + #BookSky for people to see me, right? Then let me introduce myself to those spaces - I'm an indie author who is sarcastic about everything. I have 4 novels out, 3 thrillers and 1 sci-fi.

#BookSky #WritingCommunity I'm releasing a special edition this month! Three thriller novels in one book, plus my own art and five short stories. There's also a foreword and dedications section. This is my biggest project yet and I'm very excited for it!

I'm still figuring out how feeds work here. Hoping I can start showing up in and connecting with people from the #BookSky and #WritingCommunity side of things. It's hard. New platforms are confusing.

Hot take that I've said before but I'll say again: The narrative that self-publishing MUST cost thousands needs to end. This one really riled up Twitter so let's see how #BookSky takes it. To clarify: I didn't say it can't. But it can also be done for free.

And just like that, it's March 1st. #BookSky, what are you plans for the month? My special edition is coming out on 29th March. Until then, I will be slowly spiralling into madness.

I've seen a few #BookSky people talking about going indie for the first time. So it seems like a good time to let you know... I'm running a course on that! Everything you need to know about editing, covers, marketing and more in the self-pub/indie world! Comment for sign-up form! 💙

You know what I don't talk about enough? EVENTS! As of March, I'm bringing back in-person events. So far, these are all the ones I've booked. And what exactly do I do at these events? The best place to find out is at #WhatsOnLincs #lincsconnect lincsconnect.co.uk/event/meet-e...

⚡📚 Apparently this is some sort of magical secret code that means all the thriller lovers can now see me? In which case, may I introduce you to The Secrets Series, my Russian Mafia Thriller that's slightly sarcastic, slightly silly and slightly sci-fi? www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

I've just discovered #BookSky! Hi, book-ish people! I'm an indie author with 3 thrillers, 1 sci-fi book, a couple of collections and a bad sense of humour! Looking to find readers, writers and actual non-bots to talk to on this site!

Someone said 'sharing first pages' and I jumped aboard the bandwagon! I format and edit after writing and this is my tiny, 5k, baby WIP, so I'm sorry it's such a hideous mess. Also... Planet of Lies spoilers because this is pg.1 of the sequel!

My very own little bookshelf. Complete with my dissertation (non-pen name redacted, you can't dox me that easily!), hardcovers, paperbacks and collections I've appeared in. And my little guardian owl who keeps my books safe.

I get a certain childish joy out of going through someone's profile and finding out they're a fake author. It's become a game. I'm like, yes, I caught another one!

Is there a nice, politics-free, writing/book talk heavy side of Bluesky that I can't find? 'Discover' 'Popular with friends' and 'following' are rammed full of American politics. I'm sure I followed writing accounts...

Weirdly enough, I've seen people talking about this across platforms so... Time to reiterate what I've always said: If a publisher offers you a contract and then asks for money before they publish your work... RUN! That's vanity publishing.

Family Secrets is my debut and it's not as popular as others in the same series in terms of sheer numbers, but the reviews? People love my weird little firstborn. Comes complete with people escaping the mafia in wheelie bins and other stuff from 19 year old Ellie's brain.

While I had my author copies out today, I thought I'd have some fun with them! So, why should you buy my hardcovers? - ASMR - They smell good - Pretty shiny covers - ... They taste good?? I bit one so you don't have to. You're welcome. Take a look! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOVj...
