Hi there. Thank you for your interest in Asleep from Day. I'm afraid my first novel, which I self-published, is currently out of print. That's why it's been tough to find. There are currently no immediate plans for it to be re-published, but other readers have asked about this book, so I'll let you know if that changes.(less)

Hi Sarah! Thank you for your kind words about Oona. I am indeed working on something new, and I hope to share more details on that very soon. I'm also thinking about republishing Asleep from Day, possibly this summer. Either way, there will be something new for you to read in the near-ish future!(less)
