[Fly on the Wall Press @fly_press]

I am devastated to inform you all of the death of Fly on the Wall Press author, Laura Fish. My thoughts and prayers are with her partner, Michael, and family at this terrible time. It has come as an awful shock, having worked so closely with Laura over the last year since we agreed to publish her third novel. Just days before the release of that powerful and beautiful story, Lying Perfectly Still, it is deeply sad to know that she will not see this important project through to completion. I know that the Fly on the Wall family of authors will be equally saddened to hear this news. Please know that I value each and every one of you more than you can know.

The best way that I can honour Laura is to ensure that her work is heard. With a voice of great literary quality, integrity and generosity, Laura’s work has lifted underrepresented and marginalised voices, with empathy and respect for their stories. She had hugely important things to say and I intend to make sure her voice remains present.

Rest in peace, Laura, and God bless you.
