Spring into March's Newsletter


My Monthly Dispatch

Time to catch up on what's been happening this past month, and see what's coming up.

Hello Reader. It's March, can you believe it? January was 491 days long but February seemed to disappear like mist in sunlight!

But how was February for you? I'm still searching for a job and am thankful for every response I get, even if it is a 'no.' Responses seem like a thing of the past, which I find odd considering how many different options there are. And yes, I did feel old as I typed that!

I hope you're enjoying the short stories I'm doing. I'd love to hear from you about them. Do you have a local story or legend you'd like me to? Let me know if you do, especially if they're for a specific time of year. 💙

So, what else has happened since last we spoke? Let me tell you...


Macsen and Delyth are with my Critique Partner and Editor!!! Woohoo, I'm so happy. Also nervous as hell, but happy. I'm hoping to hear back soon so I can start on the edits and formatting.

If you would like to review an ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) then fill out the form from the link below and I'll get one sent as soon as possible. There is also an option to read and review the other books in the series if you haven't so far.

The release date for Bridge of Bones is the 14th of April but it is available for pre-order right now on Amazon. You can also find it on Goodreads, Smashbomb, and BookBub if you want to put it on your TBR. 💙


Happy 4th Birthday, Hiraeth!

It's hard to believe Hiraeth is four years old, but it's true on the 8th of March!

As a special treat for my newsletter subscribers, I'm offering a free copy of this magical realism story with dragons, set in Beddgelert, North Wales. Simply email me with the subject line "Happy Birthday, Hiraeth," and I'll send you a copy!


FREE BOOKS (March)

Get these books fast! Bestselling authors have teamed up to offer a delightful selection of new books. Available for a limited time.


Anyone know what I'm talking about? 😆 Wishing you a wonderful March filled with fresh beginnings and inspiring stories. 💙

What are you up to this month? Do you have any special plans or events coming up? Let me know if you fancy sharing, and AUTHORS, that includes you!

If you want daily updates, don't forget to join my FB group - Morgan's Musings.

Until next month, take care and keep reading! 💙

Spring Equinox - The Woman Made of Flowers

Hey Reader. Today is the spring equinox, and in Welsh it carries a name that feels like the thing itself: Cyhydnos y Gwanwyn, which translates roughly as the equal night of spring, that particular turning point in the year when the hours of light and dark finally balance before the long slow tipping towards summer. There is something in that equilibrium that has always felt significant to me, a held breath before the world rushes forward. The equinox carries a second Welsh name alongside...

Hello March

Time to catch up on what's been happening this past month, and see what's coming up. Hey Reader. Firstly, my apologies for the late arrival of this month's newsletter. I was under the weather last week and completely out of action! Thank you for your patience. On a brighter note, spring is very much in the air here in my little corner of Germany. The dark mornings are finally giving way to light, and I have a feeling the worst of winter is behind us (though I'm whispering that, just in case I...

Book Birthday Sale
