I’m an author (7 crime novels). My 8th #TheDueDate is out at the end of Oct. I’m currently writing a speculative crime book with a horror vibe. I also teach Creative Writing. 🤓✍️

A big THANK YOU to @nikimackay.bsky.social for this blurb for my forthcoming thriller: “Shot Clock is a slick, fast-paced novel that delves into the fascinating world of the NBA and Las Vegas's less glittery side.... A taut thriller with emotional depth.” --Niki Mackay, author of The Due Date

Next week the paperback of #TheTwenty is out in the wild. At the same time as a million celebrity Xmas books. So if you fancy a preorder it would be very much appreciated. And Chris Whitaker liked it and he’s never wrong (thank you, Chris!) Link here: amzn.to/3LyQqBZ

#openmic #flopoet clever, pretty words from fellow x #BRITkid #woodzy - a pit stop in surrey before Vegas apparently 👀. I particularly loved #ManDown 💔

Here’s a bit of a random ask! I am looking for books written by family carers about their experiences of caring - like The Reluctant Carer, An Extra Pair of Hands by Kate Mosse, Who Cares by Emily Kenway, Twelve Moons by Caro Giles or Tender by Penny Wincer. 📚💙Thank you for your help!

Loved this documentary about the making of #IT the mini series. One of the first things to properly scare me (book and series). Interesting to hear the cast and crew recount what it was like to film. A good watch for the #horrorfans 🤡 #hellobluesky

Good news. I'm looking forward to being able to read and vote on the proposed deal. Hope that they now can close an acceptable deal with SAG-AFTRA. (This is a gift link so it should work.) www.nytimes.com/live/2023/09...
