Many thanks to Sophie at Belfast Live for this amazing article about my latest novel, The Blue Man and my author career to date.
The countdown to Halloween is on, so if you’d like to read a sinister horror that’s a blend of urban folklore and a supernatural revenge story, why not grab a copy from Amazon, Waterstones or other online retailers.
Although The Blue Man is no longer on Amazon’s Hot New Releases chart, since it was released in July so is no longer ‘new’, it’s now on a different list: Amazon’s Top 100 Bestseller list for Ghost Horror, currently sitting at #14!
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.
