Should I film a YouTube video where I go around my house and count all of our books...?

I was super honoured to be invited on to Forbidden Planet TV to talk more about The Lady of the Lake, Arthurian Legend, and writing this summer and now the interview is live! Check it out here and definitely subscribe to FPTV if you love fantasy, sci-fi, and horror lit.

I wanted to apologise for not having any long form content up for the past two weeks, I am currently approaching the very end of a deadline for a nonfiction book I can’t wait to share with you all so there hasn’t been much time.

I was wondering if next week you would be interested in a deep dive into my folio society book collection? It’s a little different so I thought I’d ask your opinion ☺️.

Just a quick heads up! 

I signed 100 copies of The Lady of the Lake for Forbidden Planet and they're now available to order from their website if you're interested: forbiddenplanet.com/464628-the-lady-of-the-lake-si…

I just wanted to let you know that I have been given a limited time referral link for a 90 day free trial of the BookBeat app (my current go to app for audiobooks): hsl.ink/BookBeat_90DAYS_jean

This offer is valid between June 2nd and June 15th, and I will get a small referral commission if you do sign up for the trial.

If you do sign up may I also recommend a few fantastic nonfiction books you can currently find on there. Happy listening!

If you’re interested, I thought I could film a video where I answer your ancient history and mythology questions!

This requires your questions however, so if you have one, BIG OR SMALL, please do leave it here.

Thanks so much ♥️

Hey everyone! 

Happy Myths and Legends Day (I actually had no idea this existed until a few days ago but I'm glad I do now). 

In honour of the holiday my publisher have made Live Like a Goddess (my new YA book) 99p on kindle for just one day so I wanted to give you a heads up in case you wanted to grab yourself a bargain: amzn.to/3Fdhe79
