It’s a bit early yet for Halloween yet…I know! But it’s my favourite seasonal holiday and I’m getting into the spirit early.
It’s almost the one year anniversary of my debut novel, Gods of Avalon Road being published. The story is set at Beltaine (Mayday) but Samhain (Halloween) is another important time of year for the ancient Celtic Britons in the book.
Anyway, here’s my mini Halloween tree in a cleared spot on the bookshelf – pride of place!
Leilanie Stewart is an author and poet from Belfast, Northern Ireland. She has written four novels, including award-winning ghost horror, The Blue Man, as well as three poetry collections. Her writing confronts the nature of self; her novels feature main characters on a dark psychological journey who have a crisis of identity and create a new sense of being. She began writing for publication while working as an English teacher in Japan, a career pathway that has influenced themes in her writing. Her former career as an Archaeologist has also inspired her writing and she has incorporated elements of archaeology and mythology into both her fiction and poetry.
In addition to promoting her own work, Leilanie runs Bindweed Magazine, a creative writing literary journal with her writer husband, Joseph Robert. Aside from publishing pursuits, Leilanie enjoys spending time with her husband and their lively literary lad, a voracious reader of sea monster books.
