Giving Away Free Copies of The Hotline Girl

Tomorrow, Monday the 14th, I’m going to be on my publishing house’s page – Clean Reads – doing fun pictures and info about The Hotline Girl, as well as giving away a few copies of the book.

A lot of staying at home, which is probably good because we’re about to move 25 minute...

Cora and the Nurse Dragon

The story follows the adventures of Cora Harrison in a world where Dragons no longer li...
