I’ll never get over the fact that we can open a book and enter a completely different mind. No internet. No screens. Just you and a book that hits exactly where you are. Magic, really — and entirely manual.

Thrilled to report that my pick last week, The Knight and the Moth, debuted at No. 1 in the US book charts with 68,087 copies sold!
📚 And yes, my Weekend Brief now includes the exact number of books sold for each title in the UK and US Top 10…

For the Writers in the Gutter, Looking at the Stars
✨ You don’t need a degree to write
✨ You don’t need a perfect outline
✨ You don’t even need to know the ending.
You just need a stubborn little voice saying, “Keep going. This might be something.”

Lady Scribbledown’s Weekend Brief — Issue #1, 19 May 2025 open.substack.com/pub/ladyscri...
He tumbled down with such a clatter,
Leaving readers to wonder what’s the matter.
So, dear writers, take this friendly warning:
Not every egg’s destined for morning.
Some stories need time before morning’s light,
To hatch with grace and take proper flight.
~ Lady Scribbledown 🖋️

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Certain his tale would quite enthral.
But editors sighed and shook their heads,
‘Too many cracks’, was what they said.
Little Jack Horner sat in a corner,
Drafting a thriller quite grim.
He shouted with glee, 'It's page ninety-three!'
But forgot to include any vim.
