Congratulations! Can’t wait to read this!!! My spooky middle grade is out mid-March, fancy a book swap? 📚👻
A copy of The Unfinished Business on a rusted surface. The book is a softcover (although there's a hardcover available!) and shows a night-time cityscape with glowing windows. A girl looks out a top-storey window at three ghosts floating overhead. In the background is a wind-up ghost with "boo!" written on its belly.
Me again, talking about my ghostly middle grade novel The Unfinished Business. It's out in two weeks, and it would mean a lot if you wanted to help spread the word!

Cover for ‘The Shoe Creeper’ book which is released 25.09.2026
I’m excited to share ‘The Shoe Creeper’ cover and key info!
In ‘The Shoe Creeper’ - a MG Horror with adventure and heart - a boy seeking control of his complicated life must uncover the link between his unwell grandmother and a fairy-tale monster that kidnaps children.

I think I get a feeling/idea for a story, and that quickly develops. Soon the plot is taking shape and the characters are popping into my mind (and heart) so rapidly it’s hard to keep up. I don’t have a set approach yet. I like seeing how things happen naturally. #TheShoeCreeper #ukteenchat
I needed to ensure anyone who read Fyn Carter and expected more of the same was clear what to expect this time. #TheShoeCreeper still has fun and adventure, but it does have some darker moments too. I also needed to put thought into how dark was too dark to try and get the balance right #ukteenchat
😂 It seems soooo good right now! #ukteenchat
Sure! #TheShoeCreeper is an upper MG horror story based on the idea of an original folk tale about a monster that kidnaps and eats people, leaving behind a single shoe as a calling card. I came up with the idea after wondering why there are so many random shoes on the side of the road! #ukteenchat
For #TheShoeCreeper I wanted to set it in real time in a real place so researched times of sunrise, sunset, high tide, low tide, moon visibility, school terms etc. I also did a walking tour of the key locations in the book (in Seaton) at the same seasonal time to pick up extra details. #ukteenchat
Seaton is a town I love, and some of my favourite people live there. With its location in Devon on the south coast of England, it felt like a nice place to explore in writing. I also like the feeling of the people I know there seeing the place through different eyes 👀 #ukteenchat #TheShoeCreeper
Now realising some of favourite spooky tropes (graveyards, a stormy night, and foggy areas) are not in the book 😂 I do like a spooky forest, the threat of the unknown, and a connection to the past. You can definitely expect those (and some atmospheric weather) in #TheShoeCreeper 👟🎃📖 #ukteenchat
Really looking forward to this!! Thank you ☺️👟🎃📖 #ukteenchat #kidlit #TheShoeCreeper
Next #ukteenchat will be on Tues 7th October 8-9pm BST with the fabulous @ianhcreates.bsky.social - who will be chatting all about his new spooky MG - The Shoe Creeper 👟 All welcome to cone along and join in the chat 🙂
