Getting in the mood with some #gothic fiction. How many of these have you read? 🤔

I just learned that my new book, the revised and expanded version of *The Witch's Name*, is available for pre-order over at Crossed Crow Books, but I also learned that in addition to the paperback they are also releasing a HARDCOVER edition! (And what do you all think of that snazzy new cover?)

Well I published my Aphorism book through Lulu as I had an opportunity to get it into a local bookstore if I jumped. We shall see how this goes

I will never understand why a post attracts people who want to explain to the person posting why the thing they posted is correct, or to shift it to their own version. Please respect that if I post something, I researched, read, understood it. If you are an expert, I will listen to you.

WHILE I AM AT IT... my wife, the talented Patricia Lee Macomber has a new novel out asf of August that needs some love. Hard to describe, but it's sort of a horrifying light romance, slipping from carnage to almost cozy and back. Audio to come:

Even though the peak season for thatched-roof fires is done, most homeowners still pay their tithe to the Heg-spunt. It's most unwise to withhold what is due from the sprite guardian of all things hay. Fires aren't its only means of getting even with those who would break treaty.

Why do your posts never show up on the #witchsky feed?
A very late “good morning” my lovelies. Housework is all caught up, and now I shall spend the rest of this Saturday “reading” & writing, as I catch up on adding a few of my previous workings into my current BoS. Wishing you all a magickal day. ✨☕️

Good Morning 😊

I'm sorry I can't come to work today as I've just been diagnosed with IBS (Impulse Book-Reading Syndrome), and my symptoms will last around 400 pages. 😉💙📚

Hey everyone, how’s it going? My first novel is 10 years old this year (yes, you’ve been putting up with me for that long!). If you do Kindle, @gollancz has the entire Relic Guild trilogy on Kindle Unlimited, so check it for marvellous fantasy adventure!

This is brilliant! lol
If you have a medication you need to take at a certain time every day, give your cat a treat every time you do. After a week, the cat will never let you forget your meds again.
me, thinking deep important thoughts during this historic moment: how the fuck does the cat always know when it is exactly 5 p.m.
