Post Publication feelings…

Well it has been almost two weeks now since my debut was released. I am SO happy with how it all went.

The launch party was probably one of the most incredible nights of my life and I’m so grateful to everyone who came and supported me. I had the time of my life, seeing friends and family and meeting new people. I sold out of books and had a few prosecco’s and just lived my best life.

In the last two weeks my book has sat in the Top 100 New Releases for FOUR different categories, reaching number 16 in Contemporary Women’s Fiction. It feels like an absolute fever dream to have even made it into the charts, but to sit in the Top 100 is just incredible.

So what is next… ?

Now that the book is out, I now have the brain space to figure out what to do next. I know that I won’t be an author who is able to produce books quickly. Sometimes I feel guilty about that, but I have to remind myself that I work full-time and also have a life to live. Writing doesn’t pay the bills and until it does (my dream tbh) I won’t have the free time to be able to commit to writing full time.

In saying that, I do have two books that are sitting pretty in my mind right now, and I have started to plot and write one of them. There is definitely a possibility of a follow on book for I Promise I Won’t Fall, but it will feature a new couple. I am happy with where Xavier and Ella’s story ended, but there are definitely other relationships to explore 👀

As for the other novel, I have been thinking about this story for MONTHS and I finally feel like I have the ability to start it. It’s completely different to IPIWF. There will be magical elements and slow burn romance and I can’t wait to get stuck into it so I can share more with you!

Ideally I’d love to publish again in 2025… but it will depend on where life takes me.

Thank you again for all of your support. My dream of being a published author has come true, and it wouldn’t be possible without you. The readers. I am forever grateful 🤍🤍🤍
