Happy publication day to THE FISH by @stubbs_writer 🎉🥳👏

A beautiful cli-fi set in a dystopian future as fish adapt to walk on the land, highly recommended by @FayWeldonWriter and @KarlaNeblett - don't miss out!

@reading_glass Exactly this.

My @JoyceCarolOates collection continues to spawn! 🌟

It's really bothering me that the ones I borrowed from the library aren't here! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Although two of them were so freaky (Zombie and Daddy Love), I'm still bookishly scarred.

@GavinCologne @JoyceCarolOates Gavin, you're absolutely to blame for the obsession. You introduced me to Black Water; the rest is history! 🤸🏽‍♀️Remembering others I've read too, but the ultimate moment was discussing Black Water + what must have inspired it. The power of that message still gives me goosebumps🖤

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

@brendon_books feel you might be interested in this thread in relation to the event I'll be involved with in November! 🌺

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

@reading_glass should I just accept "my turn" at this current time in history?

I honestly don't know how I feel about it (like I said, ambivalence) other than the fact that the saying "history repeats itself" pops into my head every time I consider it all (for some reason).

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

Oh god, I just remembered The Barrens too, 😱🫣

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

@Ahthatsbecky @BSUCreativeW ☺️🙃✨ read in a day? That must have been intense! 😂

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

Still reeling from yesterday's event where I was interviewed at BookBag bookshop as part of the #AfricaWritesExeter Festival.

What a special moment.

☺️🙃💕

Go follow @bookbagbookshop and @TheRootsResist who put together this brilliant festival along with the Uni of Exeter.

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

This event has meant so much to me.

I'm waiting for my train on my return home thinking how without words I am to capture the feelings.

[Africa Writes @AfricaWritesUK]

We are now back @bookbagbookshop where @malcolmrichards & Ocean Tawiah are talking to @KarlaNeblett exploring writing nature, constructing the child’s perspective & the repercussions of substance abuse in her powerful novel King of Rabbits. #AfricaWritesExeter

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

I can't quite articulate how proud I am to have been asked to be a part of this festival. How I wish my dad was here to see.

Thank you, #AfricaWritesExeter and @bookbagbookshop for having me.

❤️

@reading_glass Uhhhh stop, I could cry. PMT and you being so generous with these comments about my book and writing which I'm constantly doubting myself over 🙈 I'll reread post-PMT and feel the difference! 😅💕Xx

[The Reading Glass - Rebecca - Somewhat Slightly @reading_glass]

@EveAinsworth @KarlaNeblett wrote the absolutely stunning King of Rabbits and I just don’t understand why it hasn’t had the amount of exposure which many lesser books have.

[Karla Neblett @KarlaNeblett]

@reading_glass @EveAinsworth 🥰thanks. That really means a lot 💕
