Thank you @titanbooks and @delilahsdawson for this finished copy of a magnificent novella! And y'all - yes, you - should get your pre-orders in! #monstera #delilahsdawson #titanbooks #horror
Some comforting bedtime reading from the Koshchei the Deathless hardcover collection. One of my favourite storylines and Gamori is one of my favourite characters.
I should probably start warning readers now: if you're planning on reading Our Lady of Battles next year, you should definitely read A Forest, Darkly now... And then re-read it just before you start Our Lady. Just saying...
Have just heard something described as "Angela Slatter coded" 🤣. Surely this is a milestone of some sort? For no reason at all, the art is by @tanaudel ... No reason at all.
In case you've forgotten (how could you!?) The Sourdough Compendium's out via your fave purveyor of bookish goodies. If you've enjoyed my Sourdough novels, these fairy tales underpin them. This chonky baby from @titanbooks is for you. #agslatter #thesourdoughcompendium #gothicfairytales
The excellent Jo Kaplan and I will be telling tales on Story Hour next week...
Write club means I get to see the practice pieces being done by @tanaudel for the Aus/NZ limited edition of The Path of Thorns for @hipkisspublishinghouse 💜
Just seen the covers for the Taiwanese translations of The Path of Thorns. 😍😍😍
Starting a re-read of Grimoire Girl by the wonderful @hilarieburton because the book, like the author, brings joy in hard times. 💚
Grab Constantine's lighter and pack some snacky-snacks. Time to start prepping for the National Australian Horror Convention in 2027. Myself & the excellent @alan_weird_baxter are the Guests of Horror: we pledge to be amusing and downright terrifying. Details are here www.natozhorrorcon.com.
Things. Cunning, sneaky things being worked upon by @tanaudel and @hipkisspublishinghouse ... This is going to be a very pretty limited edition of The Path of Thorns! 😊😊💜💜
Bery excited to have a story in this anthology edited by @jonathanstrahan! Look at that cover by @galendara!
My murder rock! Thank you shirleyjacksonawards and Kathleen Jennings for schlepping it home! #shirleyjacksonawards #thecoldhouse #agslatter #angelaslatter
I've finally written a newsletter with a whole bunch of updates. It'll go out some time next week. I'll be doing a giveaway of a hardcover of Fitcher's Bird (not due out until Oct), so if you want to be in the running, sign up for said newsletter at www.angelaslatter.com - a prompt should drop down.
Woot! Copies of the UK paperback edition of The Cold House looking very pretty. Tragic loss. Remote location. Ghostly kid. Dodgy lawyer. Who gets out alive? #thecoldhouse #agslatter #titanbooks #folkhorror
I'm late to the party (but honestly, never met a party I wasn't late to) but Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo is just perfectly superb. No notes. So damned good.
In the mail! A very beautiful paperback of A Tangled Magic by @andrea_eames_author - with sprayed edges! Haven't seen those on a PB before! Foil on the cover is lovely but not showing up in my terrible photos (Terrible Photos ™ is my brand 🤣). Thank you, Andrea and Penguin Random House US.
This beauty arrived yesterday! My @witches.of.scotland scarf from @pricklytartan 🩷🩶♥️🤍
Starting the day right with signing sheets for the US limited edition of The Path of Thorns from @thunderstormbooks 💙❤️💜
ARC in the mail! First sighting of Fitcher's Bird as a real bookish object!! So pretty! Thanks @titan 💙💙 #agslatter #fitchersbird #titanbooks #horror #novella
