I forgot this place existed 😭 too many apps and shiny new things. What are we all working on #SkyWriters - I’m digging into the final Grail Cycle book and the second Gaslamp book and might have a little something sci-fi in the works because why not? #writers #writing

I have character art!! And I might have spent the last few days staring at this because of its absolute perfection. Meet Ezra from my upcoming Gaslamp fantasy romance - out in November. Gorgeous art by @dark_zephi_art (go follow her on Insta) #BookSky

Have just sent the manuscript for my fifth fantasy book off to be formatted and the feelings never change - I am equal parts excited and terrified people are going to read this book 🫣

Who else drafts on paper first? And ends up with a chaotic mess of notebooks, sticky notes and random pieces of paper? Also I’ve lost my office because the cat has stolen my chair so kitchen table it is #skywriters

The final Grail Cycle book is 50% drafted with 80k words! Such feelings to be working on this fourth book in the series! I never thought Arthurian legend and pirates would work but it does! I’ve loved writing this series! #BookSky #skywriters

Why oh why did I create a character that only speaks in rhyming couplets? Why? I don’t have the spoons for her at the moment. #BookSky #skywriters #fantasybooks

Haven’t written much recently. Migraine, possibly got Covid, the world is burning … but just wrote a massive chunk of Grail 4 and tied some things together. The fun of not writing chronologically.

For years, I’ve been trying to write a stand-alone but have failed miserably. Everything has turned into a series but I’ve done it! In order to do this though I had to write - wait for it - a novella. The series writer had written a horror-romance novella!! Cover mock-up below

Soo how do we like our book boyfriends? If you haven’t read my Romantasy series yet can I interest you in a man who isn’t an a-hole and supports her desire to smash the patriarchy? Where he falls first and will end the world for her? #BookSky

Hello new follower people! I’m slowly working my way through following everyone back! Right now this place is quiet and chill and I’m happy to be here.

I think I might like it here but what if I told you I’ve written a reimagining of Arthurian legend, with pirates, slow burn romance and gods who can’t mind their business. Also a book boyfriend who isn’t toxic and supports her need to smash the patriarchy. A feminist pirate - who knew? #BookSky

💀A low magic system based on science
💀Victorian era vibes
💀Slow burn romance between an introverted FMC and a MMC with Draco energy
💀Wicked banter
💀Found family

Looks like I’m here now. Hi, I’m Kate and I write epic fantasy romance with fierce women, supportive men, slow burning love affairs and often complex worlds with a dose of politics.
