Updates and a Book Release
Publishing - How it Works
It has been a few months since I posted on here, and a lot has happened. First, My book is officially published and out in the world! This is such an amazing achievement for me, and has not been without it’s hurdles along the way. Seeing the love for my little book online has been amazing, and I can’t wait for more of you to read it.
For those who aren’t sure on how to publish themselves, it’s both easy and difficult all at the same time. I will do a more detailed post on this, but in a nutshell, if you have a book cover, ISBN numbers and a formatted manuscript, you are on your way.
For my book, I went wide, meaning its available in most book stores online, as well as e-book versions on sites like Amazon and Kobo. However, being wide means my book isn’t in kindle unlimited to read. You can buy the Amazon kindle version though. I know, it’s complicated, but Amazon has its own set of rules.
I am fortunate to have my book available in all formats too, so whether you like e-books, paper copies or an audio book, I have you covered! Just look up my book online and you will find it!
Indie Authors
As well as being an author myself, I love to share about other indie authors out there. If you follow me on socials, you might have seen some of my posts. To help spread the word on Aussie Indie Authors in particular though, I am starting an online book club soon, so keep a look out for more info!
In the meantime, if you are on Kobo, on the 1st September, myself and 99 other amazing authors are taking part in a Kobo Plus Book Fair!! There is a large variety of genres to choose from, and you might just find your next favourite read of the year!

Currently Working On
With book one out in the world, I am well into the first draft of book 2. This is so much fun, and the world is evolving, as characters explore more of the land, and you get to see more places, meet new people, and discover some interesting animals in the world of Ethos. I won’t share too much just yet, but the book is coming along nicely, with a 2025 release date planned. For now, enjoy book 1, and if you have any ideas and theories you have on book 2, I would love to hear them!
