I’d particularly love to be part of Christmas selections featuring Irish books and authors.
Nature’s Acre is available to bookshops through the usual distribution channels.
Already have it on your shelves — or thinking of stocking it? Give me a wave. 🌱

I shall stop reposting this at some point.
This is not that point. The point has not been reached. The point in our collective future. You must have faith in the existence of the point. One day, if we stick together, we will reach that point.
But not yet. Not today.

Lo, 'tis THE DUNGEON BOOK cover!
The Jungle Book meets Dungeons and Dragons with a dash of Pan's Labyrinth in this gleefully fun standalone fantasy narrated by a sentient skull, in which a small girl is thrown to a dungeon full of monsters, who decide to raise her rather than eat her.
11th August!

Cant wait to get stuck in over the Christmas, Creedo! There’s kind of a theme here, long time ago, far far away-folk&fairy tales!

Something seems to be happening with Nature’s Acre.
50 copies were ordered in one go last week. I don’t know where they’re going.
Around 600 copies have now found their way into the world.
For a little book that started in a garden in Ireland, it’s really moving. 🌱
