WE ARE BACK (on Saturday at 1600 BST)

Hooray! I am back from my holiday and I'm looking forward to seeing you :D

Fight Crush

I am having terrible trouble articulating the principle that underlies this concept and so am appealing to the internet for help. :D

Curtains

Will they help? IDK let's find out.

LIVESTREAM in THREE HOURS

Please note, Americans, that your time zone may have changed but mine hasn't, so definitely plug 1600 GMT into your calendar to see what time it is with you :) So looking forward to talking to you all again!

The Mark of Zorro (1940) - Diego vs. Pasquale

Boy, they do not make them like this any more. Hope you have a lovely weekend, and $5+ Patrons, I will see you tomorrow! YouTube link for those of you who can't watch Patreon videos: https://youtu.be/J0hHe5kCPKg

A Stealth Stuff You Like video

On Lockwood and Co, because I finally finished reading the books! :)

A Trap Door Update

Yeah, so, we knew my house had a damp problem, but it turns out it's probably not a rising damp problem, just a (really bad) condensation problem. So...partial win?

Also: some classic British TV for you.

We're BACK on the 16th March :)

Well, January was a bust because of cat illness, and February was full of...things which included no internet for a bit, but we're back, friends, and I have many things to tell you (most of which are actually boring but here we are :P)

Hope to see you next week!

Where have you been? A moving update

My major thought while watching this video was dang, Jill, you look AWFUL, you need a nap.

So I will probably go do that thing.

Turns Out There WAS A Trapdoor!

Thank you for your patience, we now have Internet (yay!) but we also still have mould (boo!) The office is getting into shape slowly, so I hope I will have proper videos for you soon.

Internet yay!

THE INTERNET! SHE LIVES! (Turns out Openreach are much, MUCH more efficient than my ISP feared). The office is still a giant pile of boxes, but at least I can connect to the outside world again! Yay!

(I still have to clean about two thirds of the house because the dust is out of control, but hey, I can now do it while l...

Sigh

No Internet until early March, because there is a routing fault somewhere outside my house and Openreach have been dispatched to find it. At their own inimitable pace, obviously. While I’m gone, here’s Nemo fitting, and therefore sitting, in a box.

Just Stab Me Now Sales Update! :)

It has been Quite The Week, let me tell you.

Pinned Post for Just Stab Me Now ebook

That's all, really, if you already have the book there's nothing to see here :) If you haven't, I hope you found this post quickly and that you enjoy the book!

A Waste of a Flirty Fight, honestly

It feels like it's been AGES, but I am so happy to get this to you before we move house! Thank you to everyone who has bought the book so far, and especially if you left a review on Amazon or Goodreads or B&N or...anywhere that does book reviews, really!

Six and a half hours to go :)

Hope to see you there!

Just got…

Confirmation that all the contracts are in, so we are 99% sure that we’re ON to move next month, yay!

And also we are now over 14,500 combined pre-orders. Hot dang 🔥🔥🔥

In Memory of Sherlock

He died this morning. Thank you all for your well wishes, we will miss him a lot. But he was very well loved. And he knew that.

Gratuitous cat photo :)

He’s still not well, but he’s still with us, which frankly a few days ago I would have been surprised to hear.

(There has also been a broken car and broken internet and yet more house nonsense over the last week, but we are hanging in there)

Thank you for your well wishes for my family. I appreciate you all ve...

URGENT: STREAM CANCELLED TODAY (13th Jan, 1600GMT)

So sorry everyone, but Sherlock has taken quite ill over the last couple of days and I need to take him to the vet very urgently. 

Hope to see you soon.

Look at this paperback preorder number!

I just got done saying I didn't have any paperback preorder numbers and I went onto Ingram Spark and HERE THEY ARE???

Nearly FOUR THOUSAND PRINT BOOKS???????

Excuse me, I need a moment.

Hello, lovely people, and happy new year! I hope 2024 has got off to a good start for you, and that I'll see you (live or on the replay) next week :)

Audiobook recording is...ongoing. So is house-related wra...

Dealing with Nutty Internet Comments :D

Merry Christmas! Have a random ramble on the meme that helps me refrain from shouting at people on the Internet.

Streaming soon!

See you in half an hour :) Or on the replay, I'm not picky.

Saturday 9th December Livestream link!

Saturday 9th December livestream, 1600 GMT

Happy December! I will put a link up for the livestream next week, but make a note if you’re coming along, it’s next Saturday!

As always, if you have a question, leave it here or come along and ask it on the chat function, and I’ll see you next week (or on the replay 😊)

How many author copies?

Clearly not enough 😂 And there’s another one coming from Amazon this week!

In other news, I have recorded seven chapters of the audiobook so far. I am not going to be editing them, thankfully, but I thought I’d keep you up to date!

THE BOOK! THE FINAL BOOK! (But it's only here for a week)

My very dear lovely Patrons: HERE IT IS. After eighteen months of videos, drafts, edits and formatting challenges, I present you the ebook of Just Stab Me Now.

It is available on here for a week, so please download it before the 28th November so you can keep it forever. On the 28th I will be deleting this p...
