A little note

You haven't heard from me in a while

Dear Reader,

Firstly, welcome to all you new subscribers! It’s great to have you here. And secondly, thanks so much to all long-time readers who have reached out recently. I was really touched to hear from you. I know you haven’t heard from me in a while so I just wanted to send you a little note. At the end of last year, we suffered a family bereavement. I ended up taking an unplanned break from social media and girl with the golden pen. I also took a break from writing, which means there will be a delay in the publication of the third novel in the Double O series.

The fact that there are readers excited to get the next instalment has been a massive boost and you can rest assured the car is now back on the track – though when the book will cross the finish line and into bookshops (to mix a metaphor) I don’t yet know. But as soon as I know, you will too.

As I get into gear, the newsletter will remain on hold for a while, though I will pop back into your inboxes here and there with any exciting news. (I have a few projects I can’t yet share, but I’m excited to fill you in the day I can!) Founding members will continue to receive proofs, merch and exclusive goodies as they come.

I’ll let you know when the newsletter will resume regularly scheduled programming, and if you’d like to unsubscribe in the meantime I totally understand. If you do want to continue your support of girl with the golden pen, and receive updates as and when they come, let me say a huge thank you for your encouragement.

Whether you’re a long-term subscriber or new, free or paid, founding member or recent reader, it means the world to have you all on the journey with me, especially in hard times. Thank you.

From Kim, With Love x
