Full-time Writer
So, I handed in my notice today. I’ve worked at my job for 11 1/2 years, and been a published writer for 3 1/2 alongside it. It’s become more and more obvious that doing both is a recipe for a lack of sleep and a general disinterest in my full-time work.
My last day here will be the 18th December, after which, I’ll be a full-time writer. I’ll have news of future books in the next few weeks, I hope, but for now, I just wanted to share that I get to do something I’ve been hoping and dreaming about since I was 14.
It’s both incredibly exciting, and utterly terrifying. But a good kind of terrifying.

Two more weeks and you’re done. Off work and then out to see the new Star Wars?
Congrats! After devouring your first two books these last few days, and expecting to finish all other available until Christmas, I am very pleased to hear that you will now have full time to imagine and write more awesome stories. 😉
Hope this turns out great for you!

I recently came across one of your books in the hellequin series and I was unable to put it down. I have read all 5 in a period of a month and can’t wait for the next in the series. Congratulations on following your dream and becoming a full-time author, I look forward to reading your works in the future
