Annie Bennet 🥰

It’s my only source of income, and unfortunately I don’t really have the mental energy right now to start going down other avenues. I fully understand the boycott but it really will hurt small businesses and indie authors the most

Did some art for the characters from my book the Full Moon Problem 💙

YouTube video by Creative Writing Wizard "Traditional vs Self Published" - Creative Writing Wizard Podcast - #4 Annie Bennet & Somewhere New

In my conversation with @anniethebennet.bsky.social , I really wanted to dig into her experience as a published author of both Traditional and Self published. She gave great insight (and we had a lot of laughs along the way too haha!)

I got to chat with @anniethebennet.bsky.social in the latest episode of the Creative Writing Wizard podcast about her book.

It's a great listen, you'll likely find yourself smiling or laughing along with Annie's quick wit.😁

(Shoutout to @shauncuff.bsky.social
for his great design work!)

Do you have a dream to write? 🤔

Annie Bennet and I talked about her inspiration for writing. She faced down many challenges along the way, but now has two traditionally published and one self published book out.

My biggest piece of advice for newbie authors is to make friends with people who are far more talented than you because then, if you’re lucky, they’ll make you cool stuff 🤓
My lovely chum @sallywrites.bsky.social painted this glorious stone for me of the two best characters from Somewhere New 🐐🐐

Good book + new blanket = winning 🤓

Aster is the most obsessed with hash browns, but his lack of violent tendencies could be his downfall. Callum is also a pacifist, but he’s great at pining and epic hugs. Albert won’t pine for you, but he will head butt/kick/bite you 🐐

Meet them all in Somewhere New - my debut cosy fantasy romance 📖

It’s time to grab a blanket and snuggle up with Somewhere New - the first book in the Isle of Doughnut series 🥰
If you love a friends to lovers slow burn, remote Scottish islands, lots of spice without wildly high stakes, and cinnamon roll men - then Somewhere New is the perfect next read for you 😘

Plucked some of my fave books off my shelves - if you enjoyed any of them, I hope you’ll fall for Somewhere New as well 🥰
Somewhere New is a cosy fantasy romance that’s available to read on KU right now 🥳
