Novel excerpt from The Buddha’s Bone – publication month is here
October has arrived, which means it’s publication month for The Buddha’s Bone. The twenty-one day countdown to my book launch on 25th October is underway. I’ve been busy this week getting everything finalised for pre-order, so all the links are now updated, which you can view by clicking on the book title above. To say I’m excited is an understatement! In the meantime, here’s another excerpt from my forthcoming novel, which I hope you enjoy.
Leilanie Stewart is an award-winning author and poet from Belfast, Northern Ireland. She writes ghost and psychological horror, as well as experimental poetry. Her writing confronts the nature of self; her novels feature main characters on a dark psychological journey who have a crisis and create a new sense of identity. 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 Anthologies, a creative writing publication 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.
