Today we’re celebrating the rebranding of Devil’s Deal and the rest of the series. You’ll have to wait a little longer to see the covers of the other two books but I’m so excited to share Devil’s Deal with you. On the right, you can see the old cover which I made myself in Canva. Read More
Devil’s Deal Cover Reveal and Scavenger Hunt
Book Tour Spotlight: The Girl of Dorcha Wood by Kristin Ward
Thanks to The Write Reads and Kristin Ward for having me on the tour! I’ve received a free copy in exchange for an honest review and I will get to it but the holidays are crazy (we celebrate Sinterklaas during the first weekend of December) so I didn’t have time to finish reading it. I Read More
What Happened To My Old NaNo Projects?
I’ve taken part in several editions of NaNoWriMo (either the OG event or one of the camps that happen in April or July) over the years and still unfinished projects I started during those events. Even though I won a few of those, I’ve always been a NaNo rebel and maybe only once managed to Read More
Indie Book Haul
I wanted to do something different from Black Friday. Instead of chasing discounts and buying from big companies, I picked a few books from indie authors. I put out a call on Twitter asking for recommendations for fantasy books available on the Dutch Kobo store since I own a Kobo device. I know there are Read More
Book Tour Spotlight: Once Upon A Winter edited by H. L. Macfarlane
Thank you to the publisher for the free copy in exchange for an honest review. Due to time constraints, I haven’t had time to read the full anthology yet so I won’t post a review now and only share a first impression. I didn’t set out to read a lot of anthologies this year but Read More
What’s Coming Next?
It’s been a while since I gave an update on my writing and as you might have noticed, things did not entirely go according to plan. My health got in the way again but I’m working on it. Like with everything that’s also a constant work in progress. You’re never done maintaining your health. I Read More
Nominated SFF I’d Like To Read
It’s almost at the end of the year which means the ‘Best of’ lists will start appearing soon. That’s why I wanted to have a look at the fantasy and science fiction book nominated for the Hugo awards, the Locus awards, and the Nebula awards. I say nominations because I don’t want to only read Read More
Review: Every Heart A Doorway by Seanan McGuire
I’ve heard a lot of talk about the Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire but it took me a while before I read the first book. A few weeks ago, to be precise. I had no idea what exactly the premise was as I hadn’t looked at any of the summaries, but it was a Read More
New Lunis Aquaria Story Coming This December
It’s been a long time (too long, really) since a new book came out with my work in it. And this time my real estate is only a dozen or so pages. That doesn’t mean I’m less proud of this story. Maybe I’m even more proud of this one. After receiving a few rejections to Read More
Michael Myers: On Realistic Fear
Storytelling is inherently a fantastical process. Whether interpreting true events or coming up with something entirely fictional, imagination is a necessary part of the process of creation, but how far a story strays from reality is something every writer (or indeed creator of any kind) needs to consider when crafting a story. Today is Halloween, Read More
