A literary present to celebrate my forthcoming novel, The Blue Man
How gorgeous is this?
A lovely present from my wonderful hubby to celebrate my third novel forthcoming in a fortnight. I love this! “Leilanie’s writing” is a reusable leather notebook cover that is now my new chapter planner for my novels. The 3 yellow labels mark the 3 books in my Belfast Ghosts series: ‘TBM’ stands for ‘The Blue Man‘ which is coming out on 29th July. The final draft of ‘TFL’ (novel WIP#5) has been finished this week and a print proof copy ordered for my editor to give the red pen treatment to. I’m working on ‘MT’ (novel WIP#6) this summer and it’s up to 10,000 words so far. I’ll keep you updated!
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.
