🩸 “The tales are true of the sisters three: witches who know of all that is meant to be.”

Before she was Lady Macbeth, Thistle was a farm girl who dreamed of more. A storm brings three witches who foretell the future, promising her a crown in return for blood...

🧛 🩰 Abigail is a fun joyride, and definitely worth the watch! I loved the humor, unfolding character backstories, and the playful promise of premise.

📽️ Horror Movie is a psychological mindfuck, unlike anything I’ve ever read. It made me feel stressed out, disturbed, horrified, and INSPIRED - this book is a masterclass for horror writers.

...the right person to write it. Which she is. A glorious piece of inspired prequel fiction every Macbeth fan should read.” -Cathrine Swift
So excited to share some reviews on my horror short story, Out, Damned Spot, featured in the Classic Conversations Anthology - out April 23!

“I don’t think I shall ever forget this story. It’s embedded in my veins. Wonderfully dark, brilliantly twisted, and utterly brilliant, Julia Jackson takes the lore of the world of Shakespeare’s Macbeth and brings a side out of it that should have always been seen - but was perhaps waiting for...

Cecilia is warmly welcomed in her new role at an Italian convent. But it becomes clear to Cecilia that her new home harbors dark and horrifying secrets.

“What a wonderfully dark and delicious backstory for Lady Macbeth. Julia Jackson takes the classic tragedy and irrigates it with even more betrayal, heartbreak, and despair through poignant lines and emotive paragraphs. Out Damned Spot pays perfect homage to Shakespeare’s original work and yet...

...I constantly tell myself to “think Bruce Willis”, and figure out how I can leave the hints of the twist in the story, as M. Night Shyamalan does, before I write a single word. The book i am working on now is no different...

...Everyone needs to read this Indigenous dark fiction anthology which features twenty-six stories written by Indigenous authors.
