Thanks Andy! That’s so amazing to hear

After her best friend’s suicide, Leah stops pretending. She drinks to forget and wakes up in strangers’ beds with no memory of how she got there. Glasgow doesn’t care. Her eerie new neighbour does though. He moved in the day her friend died and knows things he really shouldn’t.

Really been enjoying the #scotwriterpitch2025 posts today. Wishing every single one of you the best of luck. Seen a few stories that I absolutely want to read as soon as possible 😍

I'm serious, this sounds like the perfect read for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder through vibes, also tumblr blog within the plot? GENIUS!

I actually didn't even know about BlueSky until this event! I've never been much of a twitter person to begin with (though I did have an account), so being on here is quite exciting!

Thank you. Good luck to you, too, Vee! I'm yet to check out your pitches!

My pitches are out in the world for #scotwriterpitch2025!
It's time to acknowledge how scarily difficult it is to cram your entire work into a 280-character elevator pitch.
Good luck to all the lovely writers in Scotland participating today!

Eren is an outcast. An orphan with glowing skin, shunned by the people of Ravenspire, where being different doesn't happen. When a stranger with the same eerie light arrives, secrets unravel. A deadly blight spreads, and Eren may be the one to stop it if–he survives the truth.
