Newt's News
Hello, my horrid horde! As you may have noticed, my emails have been multiplying like zombies in a B-movie, so I've decided to switch things up. From now on, I'll be sending out one monthly newsletter with a cheeky surprise email when a new story is unearthed. That way, you'll get all the horror you can handle without the risk of RSI from frantically clicking the ‘Report Spam’ button.

1. New Releases
Nestor Lynch is finally here, and it's FREE on Kindle Unlimited or only $0.99 for a limited time! It's got everything you could want: nefarious assassins, a perilous romance, and an ancient mystery that is worth killing for.
Teen prodigies Nestor Lynch and Erika Byrne are in a fight for their lives after the death of Nestor's parents. Will they be able to solve the mystery and survive? Or will their quest for justice lead them down a path they can't return from?
2. Behind the Scenes
Life's been busier than a morgue on a full moon. The 'Nestor Lynch' book launch kept me on my toes, and my mum managed to break her wrist while hunting for Bee Orchids. Seriously, who knew botany could be so dangerous? Between my sister and I, we've been providing full-time care and apart from a few scares, she is healing nicely.
Despite that, I've managed to get back to 'A Chemical Connection'. I've been churning out chapters like an absolute machine and I'm on the cusp of wrapping it up. After that, it's on to flash fiction, and trust me, I've got more ideas than a mad scientist in a lab.
3. Events
A big thank you to everyone who came out to the 'Nestor Lynch' book launch. If you thought Project Orange was just another bar, you've obviously never had a paranormal pint. The place was packed with more spirit(s) than a haunted house.
And let's not forget the food. Kebab Feast supplied us with an unholy amount of fries. Who knew post-launch nutrition could be so deliciously sinful?
4. Calendar
July:
'The Blood Eagle'. Who knew construction work could be so... lethal?
'A Chemical Connection' hits the shelves. LSD, accountancy, bell-bottoms, unfortunate haircuts, and my personal favourite: Death.
September:
'Tales of the Macabre, Vol. 2' is released. Because one volume of terror just wasn't enough.
