Hi there! With work on The Demon Of Darkenhall Lane continuing and nearing completion, I thought I’d take some time to explore everything you might like to know prior to reading the book upon publication.

Me And E
A couple of fun updates this week! The Demon Of Darkenhall Lane’s formatting is coming along nicely, and it should be ready for publication in early July. I’ve also decided to participate in Camp NaNoWriMo again this year, with a new project which I’m keeping under wraps for now, so stick around if you’d like to learn more as I get ready to reveal the details! For the post, I’ve decided to highlight a fiction piece, Me And E, which was previously published in TUGZ Magazine’s second issue – it’s got a bit of a dystopian vibe to it, so I hope you like it!
Take Me With You
For this week’s post, I’ve decided to highlight a poem which was available in Issue Five of Ouch! Magazine, but is unfortunately no longer available. It’s got some pretty cool space vibes and I’m pretty happy with it, so I hope you enjoy it! Look out for some more news about my next novel release, The Demon Of Darkenhall Lane, next week!
Weight Of A God
Before we get into this week’s flash fiction piece, have you checked out the completely free ebook copy of On Gentle Wings available at Smashwords? If not, I would highly recommend giving it a go – and if you want to really support me, consider buying a print copy at Amazon, leaving a review for the collection wherever you accessed it or checking out my Ko-Fi. With all that being said, I have a flash fiction piece for you today which was published by Adoxography Literary Magazine in their second issue and unfortunately is no longer available, so I thought I’d share it here.
Two Thieves, A Little Help & Guilty Of A Lie – On Gentle Wings Excerpt
Exciting news – On Gentle Wings will be releasing very soon! I’m aiming to have the ebook out during this week and the physical copy will be following shortly. You can check out my Instagram or Facebook page to keep up to date with the exact day of release, or sign up to my newsletter on my home page to get an email when the collection is published! For now, here are three poems I’ve picked from the manuscript to share with you today – I really hope you enjoy them!
Cats Collection Updates – And Other News
Hi there! It’s certainly been a while since I’ve posted something on this blog, but hopefully everything will be getting back on track soon. I’ve been very busy with uni work and also my beta reading work on Fiverr but I’ve also been working hard in the background to get some things ready.
Haunting Of Dust
Before we get into the poem this week, I have an announcement which I alluded to last week. My big news is that Cats Home is going to be released on the 15th September – yes, tomorrow! This is the release date for the ebook, which will be available at some point tomorrow to read (for free, as ever) and also the date on which I will upload the print book for publication. The print book versions always take a little more time than the ebook versions, so I hope you won’t mind the wait. But anyway, with that out of the way, please enjoy this little poem about memory and dust.
Their Little Thoughts
This is a short poem that was previously published by Morning Fruit Magazine, but as the website for the magazine is no longer available I thought I would highlight it on my blog instead. Also, make sure you look out for next week’s blog post for some exciting updates about Cats Home!
Arms
This week, I’ve got a nice little poem about feeling safe in someone’s arms for you. Don’t forget to check out Commute if you’d like to read more of my poetry!
Reflections
This week, I’ve got a short little poem for you on, unsurprisingly, the topic of ‘reflections’. It’s one of those where I’ve used the actual, physical idea of a reflection along with the more metaphorical/mental interpretation as well, which is always fun. If you like this sort of poetry, feel free to check out my new poetry book Commute (available as a free ebook and in print!).
