🧠 Thrillers, Final Edits & Launch Prep | Author Diary – September 26, 2025🎸📚

This week: thriller writing, final edits on Ravenglass Guardians, prepping Divided Crown launch, boxed set plans, Punks Versus Zombies disappointment, Spinal Tap 2, and my son turning 13.

This week, I’ve been juggling projects—working on my psychological thrillers while doing final checks on the first two Ravenglass Guardians novels.

 I’m also getting ready for the upcoming launch of Divided Crown (The Ravenglass Throne, Book 7), and exploring the idea of putting together Kindle boxed sets for other series.

On a less exciting note, I talk about my disappointment with the Punks Versus Zombies launch, which didn’t land as well as I’d hoped.

Outside of writing, I saw Spinal Tap 2 (yes, it goes to eleven), and reflect on the fact that my son’s about to turn 13—where does the time go?
