Btw The Blood Web is co-written with the wonderful @jaxsilvester.bsky.social (next one out soon). And The Path Keeper was first released in 2017- then re-released with a new publisher 2019. And four other full-length books I wrote in that time haven't see the light of day...yet. So 15 books written!

#SimmondsWritingTips

Today I'm going to talk about #self-publishing, and how to know if it's the right route for you. Full disclosure, I have books published by a big 4 publisher, an indie publisher, a digital only publisher, and I co-write a paranormal romance series which we self-publish.

I’d love to find and follow those I know or have known in the other places, but equally keen to make new book-friends! (I never send unsolicited, and work with excellent authors, promise…!) - pls say hi!! #booksky #ukya #ukkidlit

When I was a buyer at a large indie, my rule of thumb was:

1 preorder: huh, let me take a closer look at this one
2 preorders: we need to stock this book
3 preorders: we should order enough to face this out
4+ preorders: this should be on front-of-store display

Hi new followers 👋🏻 I’m so happy you’re here. Here are a few facts about me and please 🙏 in return tell me a fact about you.
🌸 I write spicy books with my bf
🌸 I’m Eastern European
🌸 I grew up nomadic
🌸 I’ve written 8 (ish) books
🌸 I like pink things, Kawaii aesthetic, THRIFTING, weird art

Just 99p right now if you want to meet our hot vamp brothers too!

Thank you so much 🥹

Also does this platform not have GIFs? So confused

Really need to find more #authors and #readers on here. Make it cosy and bookish for myself like OG Twitter

The Boys was a huge inspiration to @jaxsilvester.bsky.social and I when writing our Caedis Knight paranormal romance series. The trope twisting, the discomfort, the brave writing, and the totally bonkers messed-upness of it all. Love it!!

I told someone a childhood story today and they went “I’m so sorry that happened to you” but I had that story firmly filed away under the “funny” tab in my brain and now I have to fucking reshuffle it to tragic

And if you want to see actual examples of sex scenes I have written, check out my Caedis Knight paranormal romance series that's just 99p on Kindle right now. It's written with my bestie @jaxsilvester.bsky.social. Yeah, co-writing sex scenes is a whole different thing 😂

Thank you!

Coming to YALC???

Hi guys 🦋 I’m here too see what it’s all about. Where are my fellow writers and mutuals? Is this place truly cozier and less unhinged than the other place? #authors
