heard you are in your gothic era and craving tragic unreliable characters and mouldering rotten aesthetics and little horrors nesting behind your rib bones while you fall in love with a monster because oh do i write the books for you

COVER REVEAL!! I’m so excited to reveal the cover of my next adult gothic thriller THIS IS HOW YOU LIE!! The Housemaid meets The Haunting of Bly Manor in a tale that’s haunted, claustrophobic, and so very twisted. Out March 16, 2027 from St Martin’s Press.

just a little rundown of all my books so far. I write queer YA gothic horromances and dark adult psychological suspense 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↔️ with a lil dystopian incoming (art by ladyeruart and akkito_)

god forbid someone just wants to collect books and live in a mossy cottage deep in the darkest part of the woods and nest there pleasantly while the locals accuse them of being a witch

i’m an autistic author who has officially published three autistic books now😭🥹 The Boy Who Steals Houses (autistic acceptance) You Did Nothing Wrong (critique of parents of undiagnosed autistic kids but also about unsupported mothers left to drown) Hazelthorn (autistic rage)

very very cool to be holding the Book Of The Month edition of my twisted dark little horror You Did Nothing Wrong 😭😭 never dreamed how far this book would go when i was writing it back in 2023

@Long_Live_BC thankyou!!

@PaperFury Already have both preorder, can’t wait till they arrive!

if you like gothic botanical horror then you need my unhinged monstrous boys. Scorpion Deep is about falling in love with an eldritch sea god and Hazelthorn is about being buried alive in the garden by the boy you loved. they’re on sa|e at B&N right now!!!

just leaving this here as a little release week treat for everyone who wants my debut adult gothic domestic horror meets haunted house horror

meet the characters of my darkly unhinged debut adult gothic horror You Did Nothing Wrong 🖤🥀 im sure they are, in fact, totally innocent as the title suggests (it’s out now!!) art by Akkito_

@firescreek thank you so much!!

@PaperFury I work at Barnes & Noble and "Don't Let the Forest In" was one of our monthly picks last month. And ever since reading that, I've been obsessed with your dark yet beautiful style of writing. Cannot wait to read this one next <3

my debut adult horror is OFFICIALLY OUT!! I could not be more excited and freaking proud of this darkly twisted haunting little book. so grateful to everyone who has loved and supported You Did Nothing Wrong im so ready to haunt you forever 🥹🖤👻

We're celebrating the recent release of YOU DID NOTHING WRONG by CG Drews/@PaperFury! 🥳🥀💙 Dark domestic suspense meets haunted house horror in this unnerving adult debut guaranteed to keep you awake for days afterward. 💫Out now from @StMartinsPress! amazon.com/You-Did-Nothin…

@x_skyll I'm so glad you loved it thankyou!! And no not a reference I honestly have never watched Smallville!

@PaperFury I just finished this book, and I can't even express how much I loved it. I can't remember the last time I felt so feral over a book. I was wondering, though, were Lana Lang and Chloe's names a reference to the show Smallville?

Don’t Let The Forest In is BACK ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LIST!!! i’m so excited i don’t even know what to do with myself 😭 thank you for all the love for the new paperback of my dark academia forest rot gothic horror.

TWO OF MY FAV BOOKS ARE FINALLY IN THE BOOKSTORE @PaperFury I LOVE YOU FOR CREATING THESE MASTERPIECES

@caiizenian 😍😍🖤

maybe you were not made to labour but rather to obsess over haunted forests full of mossy eldritch trees and mushrooms and old books full of unhinged little fairy tales

Very very excited to share that You Did Nothing Wrong is a @bookofthemonth add-on selection for March! Could not be more grateful!! (This also means you can get it early 👀) For all those craving a gothic haunted house horror, this one is going to bite you back.
