THE CONTEST announcement and cover reveal

Writing books can take a long ass time.

Every time I take a crack at this I tell myself “this time I’ll be more efficient”. Apparently I have no problem lying to myself. This book took a while to find its shape. But all that said, I’m immensely proud of it.

Lots of people go into the making of a book, despite the solitary nature of the writing. Beyond family and friends, who are critical, there’s my agent Lisa Rodgers. There’s Gemma Creffield at Datura and their whole crew of publishing talent. There’s more I’m neglecting to thank. I owe them a beverage of their choice.

But here we go. The Contest, coming February 2025 (pre-order now!), from Datura Books. I can’t wait.
