German speakers can now enjoy my dark vampire romance, The Viscount’s Prey, in their own language. Here you go! I love how it reads in German, but as the author I’m possibly slightly biased. For English speakers, here’s my latest Julia Leijon release: Sometimes it takes an animal to show a man what really matters. Lucas…

Here’s another title from my Julia Leijon pen name! Will I ever stop finding excuses to write vampire stories? Signs point to no! Delivered by fate into a dark destiny … Benjamin, a new lawyer in Victorian London, aspires to nothing more than a quiet, unremarkable  life. When he is sent to Transylvania on business,…

My first book under the Julia ‘make writing fun again’ Leijon pen name, Her Silent Oath, reached the #1 spot in Amazon’s Folklore category last weekend, and a top-ten spot (#8) in the Fairy Tales category at the same time. Not a bad start! So here’s another piece of fluff to enjoy: Still reeling from her…

I’ve decided to make a new pen name, for when I want to write things that are, to quote Jane Austen, “light, and bright, and sparkling”. A chance to go back to writing without any lofty goals or ambitions for myself or the work, just a lot of fun. So here’s the first title: Her Silent…

I’ll be on the JOY 94.9 show Sci-Fi & Squeam talking about Thrive tonight from 10pm to 11pm Melbourne time (+10 GMT).

My local paper, the Hobson’s Bay Leader,  ran an article about Thrive in this week’s edition.

This review of Psychopomp High is really great. Do you enjoy playful banter? Because that’s what 85% of this game is. Sometimes it will get a chuckle out of you, or perhaps you’ll find the characters a bit more endearing, but then there are going to be sometimes where you just want to slap the…

I worked as a narrative and technical tester on Queen at Arms, a new fantasy wartime visual novel by Aqualuft Games. It’s challenging and exciting, and I recommend it highly to anyone who likes intrigue, battle strategy, romance, or just plain old good stories. You can currently grab Queen at Arms via itch.io, with a Steam release forthcoming…
