The latest in my ‘90s rom-com but make it historical’ series is out next year. Have I solved all the problematic-as-shit elements of the movie but retained all the humour and bookish feels? I hope so ❤️

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

My editor says While The Duke Was Sleeping is the funniest book I’ve written – that is entirely the work of my characters, not me.

It’s a retelling of everyone’s fav rom-com, but with none of the problematic bits (no cheating here...)

May I offer US friends an Australian proverb in these trying times:

Yeah nah shit's pretty fucked ay

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@_LucyParker Amazing!

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@caitlynlynch6 That’s amazing

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@sanchez_m_m I did the same thing. Pitched to my dream editor at Avon in person at a conference. She wanted it immediately. I hadn’t finished writing. All the pressure totally blocked me and I missed my chance.

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@CidneyMayes Top right. Stunning!

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@RomEverAfter Ooof. The work you just signed up for! We appreciate you xx

There must be a word for when you look at old pictures of yourself, from a time when you felt deeply unpretty, only to realize how beautiful you really were in retrospect

@Adela_Terrell @HannahM_Writes My second thought after ‘what a dickhead’

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

Can’t wait for this book by one of my Forever friends ❤️

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@moniza_hossain Yeah, quantity is not the problem. Finding good shows is the problem. For every five we start, we only get one that we’ll watch a full season of. Don’t give me more. That’s not what I want. Feel like this about the book industry, too.

Sage advice

I was questioning whether I should continue writing, pursuing traditional publishing, etc. It turns out I just needed a long nap, so if you're feeling some kind of way go nap.

[Charlotte Stein @Charlotte_Stein]

I made a thing to say Happy Halloween and also to tell everybody that my first Halloween-y book is out right now, and full of spoopy shenanigans! Perfect to curl up with on a sort of cold and scary October night!

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@cbrittonauthor Ew

[Samara Parish/Thorn @SamaraParish]

@Charlotte_Stein I will keep an eye out!

As you may know the algorithm here isn't so kind to small businesses nowadays. It would be fantastic if you could RT my tweet below/above in which I link to my January illustration workshop.Illness has slashed my income in the last year or so-it would help me so much.
Thankyou x
