Today, thanks to atmospheric weather that makes me think I'm on the moors of England, I'd like to recommend a beautiful historical novel that's in keeping with this feeling. #AntoinetteMay's #DeterminedHeart is about #MaryShelley, author of #Frankenstein. Her life was INCREDIBLE.

[Lynn Carthage-Author @LynnCarthage]

Absolutely my pleasure, Kristy! 😍 I hope you will enjoy. It's thundering today, a good day for #gothic #fiction set in ancestral mansions. #haunted 👻👻👻 https://t.co/2rdAh6k54Y

TFW you drive three hours & spend the night in an expensive hotel to see a real live koala, and it's asleep. Fact: they sleep 18-20 hours a day.

Enjoyed doing a library teen group visit last week! (this was before I had really gotten started and earned their trust--by the end we were doing smiling selfies together). I hope the visit inspired them to take their own writing seriously.

@ErinAlMehairi @joriestory Many thanks, Erin! And to Jorie for nominating me. Looking forward to your Women in Horror feature. 🦇🦇🦇

Hey all you neo-Gothic reader people! I've been trapped in a cell of Castle Dracula for the last few months and despaired of ever Tweeting again...but I accepted the kiss on my neck and am free! I promise better response times. 🦇🦇🏰🏰🧛‍♀️🧛‍♂️🦇🦇
