Writer of novels.
Agent: Felicity Blunt at Curtis Brown.
Looking forward to this one!
What a week to have a book out about political corruption and powerful, abusive men! At least in my novel they get their comeuppance.

My first Anna Sharpe thriller. Out today in all formats in the UK, and in eBook and audio in the US.

It is time! Wrapping my presents in front of the fire and THIS, as I do every year.

I second this, being shortlisted in the Lucy Cavendish prize in 2016 was such a huge part of my journey to publication.
Many of my (now published) writer friends started out by entering the highly prestigious @LCFictionPrize - and it’s open for entries until 31st January 2025. You never know unless you try… #WritingCommunity #booksky

I have fully turned into my mum. Going to the cinema with my son’s girlfriend (we’re the only ones who want to see Wicked) and I am taking HOMEMADE SANDWICHES.

On the 1st of January, the #Curae prize for writer-carers opens for a second time. The demise of twitter is making it harder to get the word out, so do share! thecuraeprize.uk There are around 7 million unpaid carers in the UK alone & Curae shines a light on the role & much more. #carers #writing

More exciting book post! Thanks @nikkismithauthor.bsky.social - #TheyHadItComing looks like the perfect sun-kissed antidote to this awful weather

Having just bought a book for an Xmas present from a recommendation on here, what’s a good literary, natural world-type non-fic book that I can get for my dad? I’ve bought him the mushroom one by Merlin Sheldrake and Crow Country by Mark Cocker in the past.

Have been agonising about what to say in my first post (the pressure!) but what better way to dive in than sharing some book love? I love Nikki’s books and can’t wait to read this one - great for holidays but also for reading by the fire and dreaming of sunnier climes!
Am so excited to reveal the cover of my new book #TheyHadItComing 😃😃😎
It’s set in Bali amongst the digital nomad community and features two couples who are out for revenge.
Out in May, retweets & pre-orders much appreciated!
(And thank you Viking @penguinbooks.bsky.social for the fab video!)
