Final day of the Sea of Souls sale! 🌊✨ To celebrate Mists of Memory's release, the first book in the series is currently 0.99 on Kindle in both the US and UK. It's the perfect time to grab a copy and dive into the series if you haven't done so already! books2read.com/SeaOfSouls?s...

Thank you so much for all the love, support and kind messages following Mists of Memory's release yesterday. βœ¨πŸ“š I really appreciate everyone who took the time to leave their congratulations and well wishes - it really does mean a lot! 🀍

This sale will end soon. I want to thank everyone who participated by sharing, commenting, or purchasing. Finishing Malitu and sharing the end of this story with everyone is unimaginably exciting, and announcing the release date is the first tick on the countdown to the end.

Happy release day to @scrimscribes.bsky.social for this barnstorming dark fantasy sensation that will break you in pieces. I loved the first, I loved this one, there's a pattern here I suspect. Link in the comment to my Grimdark Magazine review if you want more convincing

This book is amazing, the perfect continuation of the story I fell in love with when I first read Sea of Souls. It was one of my most anticipated books of 2025 and it didn't let me down. Thank you @scrimscribes.bsky.social for your wonderful stories

#MistsofMemory is an incredible sequel to #SeaofSouls. Love the worldbuilding and the characters. Who doesn't love a #selkie story? Hmmm? Pickup your copy today, on it's Birthday (publication day). Such a wonderful book.

RELEASE DAY! πŸ₯³ Mists of Memory is out now! It took a while getting here, but I am so proud of this book. I've put so much into this story, these characters, all the things readers loved about Sea of Souls, and I truly hope it was worth the wait. 🀍 Book details below πŸ”—πŸ‘‡

Mists of Memory by @scrimscribes.bsky.social "Mists of Memory is the continuation of Sea of Souls, and it picks up everything good that was done there, and then adds more of the same energy and vibrancy." See @andresstein.bsky.social's review here grimoireinkreviews.wordpress.com/2025/03/05/m...

Another progress update - it's the evening before Mists of Memory is published and I've just hit 30,000 words in the third and final book of the series! Feels like a great milestone to have reached ahead of release day πŸ₯³

Mists of Memory is out TOMORROW!! 🀩 Which means there is time for one final art drop before the big day... Behold, Isla and Eimhir! πŸŒŠβš”οΈ "You told me we must bury what came before. Do you believe it’s possible for friendship to exist across such wounds?” β€œI want to. ”

Anyone else got a book coming out this week? Please tell us about it! I already know about are mine (The Somnia), @benaldersonauthor.bsky.social's, Harrietta Sinclair's, @scrimscribes.bsky.social's & @liamjhogan.bsky.social's. The Somnia is a supernatural fantasy sequel set in dark alternate York.

It's finally March, which means I can say Mists of Memory is coming out THIS MONTH! πŸ’™πŸŒŠβœ¨ I'm so excited for readers to dive into this Scottish-inspired fantasy filled with folklore, magic, wild seas and raging storms. Mark your calendars for Wednesday 5 March! www.youtube.com/watch?v=E93L...

Not sure how I forgot this was happening, but Amazon have selected Those Left Behind as one of their monthly Kindle deals in the UK! πŸ’« If you haven't read the Waystations Trilogy yet, this is the perfect chance to jump in, with the first book just 99p! mybook.to/ThoseLeftBeh...

πŸ’˜ FEBRUARY WRAP UP πŸ’˜ The month of love was a bit of a mixed bag for me, but ultimately the highs outweighed the lows :) My book of the month is a toss-up between Voyage of the Damned and Mists of Memory by @scrimscribes.bsky.social πŸ’™ Hello book hangovers πŸ‘€ What did you get up to in February? πŸ”₯

Not sure why, but this February has probably been my best ever month where I haven't had a launch/sale/some kind of promotion going on. Very grateful for anyone who has picked up one of my books in the last few weeks and I'm feeling so hopeful ahead of Mists of Memory's launch next week! πŸ’™

ONE WEEK TO GO until Mists of Memory is released, which means it's time for another art drop! πŸ€©πŸ’™ "I love you, sister. But I won't allow you to destroy what is left of this family." "Lachlan, we *are* what's left of this family." This fractured sibling bond will never not make me cry... 😭

Sadly I didn't do this for Waystations (though I did end up going back later and adding summaries on my website, at least.) But I made sure to include recaps for my Sea of Souls books after realising how much I appreciate them as a reader! Plus, they're "in-world" recaps so add a bit of fun, too! 😊

10 days to go until Mists of Memory is published! πŸ’™ Can't get over how good these look together πŸ₯Ή I love how the designs complement each other, both the regular cover or the hardcover illustration. I'm expecting to have both paperbacks and hardcovers available for pre-order later this week! βœ¨πŸ“š
