Thank you for joining me through the ups and downs of 2025. I will reflect on the year (and the books I’ve read) in more detail later. For now, let me catch you up on what I’ve been up to during my blog’s hiatus these past few months.

July 2025 – Recovery, Wraiths and Cover Reveals
After last month, some of you may want updates on my burns (because you are nice like that). I will save that for the end of this month’s blog post. In the meantime, I have a lot of bookish news to share. In June, I was invited to join Willow Wraith Press. ‘What is WillowContinue reading “July 2025 – Recovery, Wraiths and Cover Reveals”
May 2025 – Upcoming Releases
I am deep in edits this weekend. There are certainly tantalising bits of world-building I could share, but they’ll take too long to write about. Instead, I’d like to direct you to some indie books coming out in June.
March 2025 – Surprising Research
Just a short update this month. While researching, I came across a piece of information about octopus blood. It is called haemocyanin, which is a copper-based protein. Apparently, it is better at transporting oxygen in cold conditions than haemoglobin. It also has a higher viscosity than human blood. This is an example of how IContinue reading “March 2025 – Surprising Research”
Coe’s Oddly Specific Book Awards
Happy Christmas to all those celebrating. We’re heading into the final week of the year, that strange time when no one knows what is going on. I’m writing this month’s blog post early, so I can put in a good word for some books in the running for the 2024 Indie Ink Awards. I amContinue reading “Coe’s Oddly Specific Book Awards”
April 2024 – An Illustrator’s Retrospective
I started this blog as a way of documenting my journey to publishing my debut novel. Since Far Removed came out, the blog’s goal has been vague, and I have shared mostly reader feedback and promotions. However, I don’t want to dedicate this space to marketing. There’s enough of that on my social media channels. SoContinue reading “April 2024 – An Illustrator’s Retrospective”

October 2023 – Q & A
As we approach the end of the year, I wanted to do something fun (I’ll get to this after a brief update). My day job will continue to take up lot of my mental capacity until December, so I am only writing on weekends. I hope to release the sequel for Far Removed in theContinue reading “October 2023 – Q & A”
July 2023 – Refine, Refine, Refine
July – a month of novelettes, mailing lists, birthdays, and reviewing epubs, paperback interiors and audiobook recordings.
June 2023 – Month of the Cover Reveal
It has been a whirlwind June for Far Removed. I have a couple of exclusive offers for those who have been bearing with me all these months.
