S.V. Leonard - Author

It's my publication day - this photo perfectly sums me up: a little chaotic, wine in hand, surrounded by family, full of delicious food. If you want to buy my book, you can...from all the usual places.

@AJWestAuthor @emily_glenister I asked someone recently if they could please use headphones. They looked genuinely surprised at how loud their phone was and stopped playing their (terrible) music.

@emily_glenister I'm going in... see ya later

Genuinely. What do we do about people playing stuff out loud on their phones on public transport? I would vote for any* political party that puts this issue in their manifesto. (For those on twitter who struggle with hyperbole I'm joking but not)

@emily_glenister Emily this is HUGE and so incredibly. You have a brilliant editorial eye and I'm sure the literary heavyweights were thrilled to work with you ♥️

Very proud to be a part of this one - but editing literary heavyweights is bloody terrifying 😟😟😟

@TallulahLyons @danniowenjones

🚨Calling all romance writers! 🚨 I'm looking for someone to write two romance novels based on an IP idea for Hodder & Stoughton 💫 If this sounds up your street, please get in touch by filling out this form! ❤️ forms.office.com/e/JKFdv8gVXT

Every time someone tweets about the #nibbies I imagine a bowl of delicious, sweet and salty snacks. I want to congratulate the winners and then find something to nibble on.

@LNERAzuma @AvantiWestCoast Thank you for sharing, you've helped me make my decision.

@LNERAzuma @AvantiWestCoast Was the train very busy this morning? I have an open return and am wondering how easy it will be to get back to London in the unreserved coach. Travelling with my dog so keen he is comfortable.

@LadyDolby @HastingSamantha Careering all over the place is my approach to many things, including novel writing.

@SVLeonard @HastingSamantha Ooh! I am so glad. Yes,she is careering all over the place. 🤣😍

A well overdue shout-out to @HastingSamantha for her book A NOVEL DISGUISE. I absolutely loved it and very much hope there more novels in the series. Historical cosy murder mysteries have stolen my heart. Looking at @LadyDolby here too.

@HastingSamantha @LadyDolby

@SVLeonard @LadyDolby Thank you! There is one more: ONCE UPON A MURDER ❤️❤️❤️

@LadyDolby @HastingSamantha I'm currently reading Violet's second outing. Such fun.

@SVLeonard @HastingSamantha 👀😊 thank you so much. 😍

@LV_matthews @JaniceHallett @ViperBooks How exciting 😮

Over the moon to have received the new @JaniceHallett THE EXAMINER, coming in August 2024. I already know I’m going to love it because, well, it’s Janice, isn’t it!! Thank you @ViperBooks

I've been in a real writing and reading slump recently...only to discover that my slump was in fact created because I wasn't writing or reading. So only one thing to do, carry on with writing the book I'm loving!

Had a load of wallets stolen from @GoldsboroBooks London. Do you know this man? @metpoliceuk

@sophielflynn But what about your Gua Sha...?! Results not hit yet?

I’m a sucker for an ad but does anyone know if this is actually good? Foundation is hard now I’m not a tight skinned 20 year old

@SVLeonard No mushrooms but... an electric corset?

Oh my goodness - early proofs of my second book are out in the world!! 🤯😮🤗

@LadyDolby You're so very welcome. It was genuinely the book I needed in the moment. And I can't wait for the next one.

@SVLeonard And also - thanks so so much for your lovely review on Goodreads. 🥰🤗

I started NO LIFE FOR A LADY by @LadyDolby yesterday and avoided all activity until I finished today (I'm on holiday so that was more doable). I loved every line. Warm, laugh out loud funny, and utterly fascinating. I'm now overjoyed to find out Hannah's book 2 is coming soon.

@LadyDolby Hurrah, and hopefully some mushroom shenanigans too 🤭

@SVLeonard It is indeed! More of Violet's detective shenanigans.😁

@mirandajewess @JaniceHallett Fighting the urge to SCREAM WITH EXCITEMENT.

So excited for everyone to read @JaniceHallett’s new novel #TheExaminer. Proofs landing in March. I bet you want to know why there’s a scorpion on the cover… 😉 🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂
