What’s happening in January

I can’t believe we’re over two weeks into 2025 already! Here’s what’s been happening behind the scenes at Roz MacLaren HQ.

Editing

I wrapped up Fable and Legend‘s final edits yesterday and received the ARC copy from my publisher! We are all ready for publication.

I’m also deep in edits for my upcoming novel, January, that’s soon to be released with Evernight Teen. I wrote January back in 2023 and, while it’s comforting to see how far my writing style has progressed, it means there’s a LOT of editing to do to get this one ready for publication.

Counting down to Fable and Legend‘s release day

Fable and Legend comes out into the world on 28 January! I can’t wait for you all to meet the host of new characters (and some old ones!) in the book. You’ll get swept along with the story of the boy who can read minds and the girl who wants to find her long-lost twin sister, all while evading people who want them dead. I’ll be releasing more details about how to pre-order (and win yourself an autographed copy!) very soon.

Reading

Somehow, I managed to fit a lot of reading into this month! I devoured the two books in Vanessa Len’s Only A Monster series. I’d definitely recommend them if you like dark fantasy (be sure to check out the trigger warnings first though!)

What have you filled your time with this month? What are you looking forward to in February? Let me know in the comments!
