I’m up to 40k words on my current novel WIP#5. It’s turning out to be another psychological horror, and quite metaphysical too. I suppose I enjoy reading psychological horror best, so it makes sense that this genre would grab me most to write about.
Writing in the park on a sunny day
I was busy last week making final amendments to my soon-to-be-published psychological horror novel The Blue Man and getting it ready for pre-order: all done now and more on this coming soon. My proofreader has the sharpest eyes and caught some last minute bits that needed changed. It’s all in a day’s work!
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.
