Lovely weekend with you both ❤️ "House of 1000 Clocks" sounds like the title of our next fantasy novel

We really lucked out on Saturday. The waterfall and the forest were beautiful. Couldn't have asked for better (and for better company) ✨️

I'm leaving Germany this evening after a brilliant trip. It was great to catch up with my fellow writers and friends @kerosero.bsky.social & @llmacrae.bsky.social!

Oh hey, look who I found in the Black Forest! ❤️ @timhardieauthor.bsky.social @llmacrae.bsky.social

Bounty Inc. by Adam Holcombe

In just one week, Bounty Inc. will be released to the world, and you can preorder it right now so you have it in time!

Do you like the found family/ensemble of Guardians of the Galaxy? The universe of Mass Effect? The absurd humor of One Piece? This is soup of all that and more!

Back on social media for two seconds to say hello!

Glad you enjoyed "Three Bells to Midnight"! ❄️

Honored to have been a part of this project ⚔️🐉⚔️

I was bummed out I missed the Kickstarter last year, but grateful to have a copy so I can countdown to Christmas.

Thank you, @dominishbooks.bsky.social and the 24 authors for creating this stunning winter anthology.

Is anyone reading this for Dec?

I had a lovely weekend catching up with two of my fellow SPFBO7 Finalists, LL MacRae & Kerstín Espinosa Rosero. Lots of fun enjoying good food and amazing scenery in the Peak District, despite one or two minor mishaps! Definitely one of the highlights of 2023 for me!
