It's been a whirlwind!
The last few days have been pretty hectic for me - the launch of 'Wyrm-galdr', with all the associated social media has kept me pretty busy.
The new book continues the story of Drew's journey within the Parallel Realm of Edinburgh and introduces some new and vibrant characters, some particularly repulsive new creatures and of course some humour and warmth.
A heartfelt thanks to everyone who has bought a copy and to those who have already left a review. As always, if you're able to leave a review (or a rating) here and on Amazon that would be wonderful. Indie bookselling is, of course, driven by reviews and it's so helpful for me to read what people think, positive or otherwise.
Incidentally, if you haven't signed up for my newsletter hop over to my website and you'll find occasional bits of extra content dropping into your inbox.
