Building up the excitement for the release of the second book in Robyn Dabney's Daughter of Summit and Sea series...with gratitude to Foreword Reviews.

On the YA side of things, I'm nominating The Ascenditure by @robyntheauthor.bsky.social.

Haven't been able to stop thinking about it for a whole year.

Oh my goodness, thank you! I am almost never on this app, so I’m just now seeing your comment. It means so much, and I’m thrilled the book resonated with you! Thank you for letting me know. 💜💜💜

Side note: Book Two will be available this December 2! 🥳

Yessss! I can’t wait! Get your tickets soon, writer friends and join us in Brussels!

Tweet reading European writers—I really think we should have our own version of AWP. There could be writing, readings, wine, cheese and other European activities? What do you think? Who is in to help think/organise and make this happen?

Happy anniversary to us!🍾🥂🎊🥳

A year ago today, Deborah sent the tweet that started all of this, bringing together writers from all over Europe for wine, cheese, writing & connection💛

If you’ve come to any of our events, say hi with a photo of your city so we can celebrate this awesome community!💫

EWS field trip? ☺️

I have got to get up there for a LOTR tour…

Servus! From gloomy gray Munich! Looking forward to the next event in Berlin! 🥳

Gorgeous!

I finally started writing a short story that has been brewing since the Nebula conference last year, and already I love this quirky little character who is emerging. I can’t wait for him to tell me who he is and what he’s like to do next.

I welcome this change. Gathering blurbs is a pain for all parties involved and they rarely have an impact!

Nothing quite inspires me to write about fictional courageous women standing up to bullies quite like real life courageous women standing up to bullies.

Wonderful!
