I don't read a lot of YA, but I may read this one just because of the title. The Boy with the Heart of Sea Glass is one of the loveliest titles I've ever seen.

🎨MONDAY MOODBOARD🎨

Have you made an aesthetic that represents your books overall?

Some of the imagery in this works for multiple books, others is story specific. What do you think I write about based on this? Can you match the books?

🌍🔗in🧬

Moodboard in purples and pinks. Five columns.
1. A city that looks like S starting to crumble.
2. A violin, York Minster, a cat in front ofafullmoon.
3. A couple kissing. 4. A flesh and cybernetic hand touching, a misty forest, a cybernetic
eye.
5. A fortress/castle/tower fantasy city.

Need a guest to interview (written, verbal, or video), someone to do a guest spot, or a new book to review? Please get in touch! I'd love to chat & I can give ebook review copies of The Seer of York. I also have a separate cyberpunk fantasy book coming out next year.

The words 'Lily Lawson brings us a beautiful collection of poems that are witty, inspiring, and empathetic to what it means to be human .... There are so many poems that resonate with a feeling which I
previously had no words for .... It's poetry that describes universal human experiences, so there's something for everyone.'
With the ebook and paperback of My Father's Daughter on a background of the image of the cover.
