Spring has sprung, and I just love the blossoms that are out at this time of year. How pretty does the art gallery look in the sunshine? 🌸☀️

Happy Sunday 💖 I'm having a very peaceful one. After working hard on editing projects for clients throughout March, I'm exhausted, but I have a little over a week off to recharge. I'm looking forward to watching some Kdramas and reading some books for enjoyment, including this one! Does anyone else *love* Studio Ghibli?

I've also been working on a big overhaul of my website (another reason why I'm so tired!), and I'm planning to launch it next week sometime. 👀

A little spot of Sunday afternoon writing. I filled out my cover designer's questionnaire for my next self-published fairytale yesterday, and I'm so excited to eventually share that! Now I'm working on a contemporary romance for my agent to eventually submit to publishing houses. I'm really loving this one. I'm keeping the idea close to my chest but the concept means a lot to me, the words are flowing and I'm enjoying every minute of writing it. 🤗

Here's the blurb.

--

Hugo Strand dreams of seeing the world, becoming a travel writer, and making something of himself. But with little money, a fragile mother to care for, and the memories of his drowned father to haunt him, he fears he’ll be stuck on Shale Island forever – a place where storms and churning seas fuel whispers of the sea gods, said to awaken every thousand years.

When a sea monster attacks and destroys the sea-train, cutting Shale off from the mainland, what was once myth becomes reality. Teaming up with archaeologist Alma Merneith, Hugo sets out to investigate a strange affliction driving the islanders to madness and death.

But their search uncovers a force beyond imagining, and proof that the sea gods are more monstrous than the residents of Shale could have dreamed. Hugo must battle his lifelong fear of the sea, and Alma must put her archaeological knowledge to the test, to overcome a monstrous legend wearing a crown made of bones...
