Hello my lovelies!

I've received such wonderful editorial feedback on this new project, which will include many of your favourites vampires from Myrtlewood!

What do you think of this draft cover?

I don't usually share draft covers but I wanted to give you a little taste of how it's going. I often go through many iterations of cover designs with my designers before it feels just right. This one is getting close.

Now, I need to work on a blurb!

I'm thinking about releasing this book at the end of September, but I haven't set up a pre-order yet because I want to make sure I have plenty of time to get extra feedback and make it as good as it can possibly be.

New fiction projects often take extra time to finalised. I'm sure I worked on the first Myrtlewood Mysteries book for at least three times longer than any of the later ones.

I can't wait to share this story with you!

Blessed be

Iris xx
