So… FYI, I’m obsessed with this tree (📷: @mscraftberrybush ) I want it! Every pastel-colored bauble and snow-flocked branch. And that little fox, and the wrapping paper… *swoon!* . . #pauseforpretty #craftberrybush #christmastree #pastelchristmas #thisauthorlife

Just hit publish for The Veil on all platforms!!! I'll just be here hyperventilating as per usual after hitting that button. It'll probably take about a week for it to be available everywhere, but I guess in the meantime I should probably think about doing some publicity and get back to work on The Oubliette, the next part of Jack and Sarah's story. #amwriting #thisauthorlife #thisauthorslife #indieauthor #writingcommunity #writing #horror #horrorfiction #horrorauthor #AmWritingHorror https://www.instagram.com/p/CQTDK9cjedV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hello, my Freaky Darlings! It's Friday, so here's a freebie. A collection of 17 dark and twisted tales that will entertain, scare, shock, and disturb you. Stories include a serial killer on the hunt for his next trophy, ghosts on a murderous reunion tour, a jealous girlfriend killing her boyfriend’s beloved pet, a ghost bride, and a demon tormenting a nun. Author Joan De La Haye presents an assortment of narratives; some have been previously published in acclaimed anthologies, while others have never seen the light of day. All are sure to provide thrills and chills but are best read with the lights on.

Hello, my Freaky Darlings! While many people have learned to bake bread during lockdown (something I’ve never quite managed to get right), I’ve been writing and putting together a new collection of short stories which is almost ready to hit those virtual shelves. In fact it should be ready for you in early January 2021. I can’t wait for you to finally be able to read the full collection. In the mean time, I’m proud to present the brand new cover for Sliced and Diced 2. And here is the official blurb: A hunter hunted, the Devil gets married, a typewriter causes havoc for the new inhabitants of an old house, the Devil’s PR agent brings a killer to justice, and a glimpse at the true cost of real estate in Hell – 13 dark and twisted tales by author Joan De La Haye brought together in her second collection. And once again, all stories will provide thrills and chills – but are best read with the lights on. So … what do you think? #horrorauthor #thisauthorlife #indieauthor #coverreveal #horrorcommunity #shortstories #shortstorycollection #comingsoon #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/CJVYWlLA0JT/?igshid=1km629tzx9g68

One of the most important things in a writer's life is the chair we sit on while we let our imagination take flight and create the stories readers devour. Today the main ingredient for my new writing cave arrived! Now I just have to put some art on the walls. #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #thisauthorlife #thisauthorslife #indieauthor #authorsofinstagram #writingchair #writingcave #newoffice #newfurniture https://www.instagram.com/p/CIaJwNcgcaQ/?igshid=9udnxp81c30v

Work on a new short story begins, but I just can't figure out the first line. I think it's one of the most important elements of writing a story. It sets the tone of the entire story. #amwriting #thisauthorlife #thisauthorslife #indieauthor #writingcommunity #writing #horror #horrorfiction #horrorshortstories #horrorstories https://www.instagram.com/p/CGwtzS7gxcD/?igshid=1txywvm6ydlq8

Hello, my Freaky Darlings! It's Tuesday. So here's a short extract from Fury. Andre tried to block the sound of her screams by cupping his hands over his ears. When that didn’t work, he stuck his fingers in his ear canals and then curled himself up as best he could on the chair he’d been forced to sit on, in the corner of the room. He tried to make himself as small as possible. Hopefully, they would forget he was there and not make him watch. The little food he had managed to get down during the day had found its way out when the leather-clad giant had cut her beautiful, perky, tits. He couldn’t watch. He buried his face in his arms and turned towards the wall. He heard her muffled scream, and then nothing except the odd sexual grunt as David’s porn star gratified himself again and again. Then there was an eerie silence. He didn’t know how long he’d been sitting there. Sobs wracked his body and tears rolled down his face. Time stood still. An hour lasted a lifetime. Thoughts flashed through his mind. Angela’s smiling face. The way she looked at him after they’d kissed. The fear on her face when she walked towards the house distorted the other images of her. He might not have known her for long, but he still felt for her. A hit of heroin would make it all go away. He wanted to get home so he could forget it all.

I can’t believe I’m saying this but… the Candy books (Real Love series) are almost done! It’s surreal to be wrapping up a series that readers haven’t had a chance to read yet! It starts with Eye Candy (July 25), just named one of the Top 25 BEST BOOKS by iBooks. WOOHOO! Great start, boys. I can’t wait to introduce these books to the world. They were truly so much fun to write. . #thisauthorlife #jessicalemmon #amediting #editinggodsbewithme #mancandy #mancandythebook #readromance #readloveswept #coming2018 #bestbook #ibooks
