Hi Flo how you doing. Trust all's well.
          Any news or updates on the next chapter 

Hello Lovely Readers! I have no self-control... Chapter 1 of S&S is published! Go have a read and please let me know what you think of Matt's perspective! xx Flo

Hello Lovely Readers! 
          Thank you all for adding The Spitfire & The Scoundrel (S&S) to your reading lists, and for checking out the early chapters I've posted. The official first chapter will be published on February 14th (felt fitting) and I'm sooooo excited for you all to read it! When I started the Humphrey Chronicles, Matt's character wasn't truly developed. He was comedic relief, the outlandish younger brother to contrast the rest of his family, but over the last few books he has grown to be one of my favourites! I am so EXCITED for you all to see his journey unfold and I hope you are too :) 
          As a side note, his love interest Beatrice goes by 'Bea', and I'm curious as to how you all would pronounce that nickname. Bee-a or Bee? Personally, I read it as Bee, but I think I'm probably in the minority... 
          Happy reading and happy writing!

Hello Lovely Readers! 
          Thank you all so much for your love towards A Proper Education - now that I've taken a few days to decompress, I wanted to share my thoughts, feelings, and thanks with you all.
          When I started aPE - and I want to preface this by saying NOW I love them - I didn't think it was going to be my favourite. I thought Simon was too GOOD of a character and that I was going to struggle to make him struggle. I wasn't excited, and I was a bit overwhelmed by how excited so many of my readers were for his story. Mostly due to all of your support, I persevered, and I can honestly say (particularly the 2nd half) is one of my favourite things I've ever written. I'm proud of there story, proud of myself for finishing it (even if it took a metric 'forever') and so thankful for all your (supportive) pressure! 
          In particular, there are a few people whose comments and check-ins really meant a lot to me over the past 12 ish months, and I wanted to give them a quick shout out! Special thanks to @Anneke776 my unofficial editor, @Demiwitch_hunter for their amazing comments, @Geekiechicforall13 my writer buddy, @lee_na_hp for always checking in so kindly, and @Ash1707 for sticking with me for so long! I'm sure I've forgotten someone (feel free to call me out in the comments haha) but please know that I still check every notification and grin at every vote, comment, or poll response like it's my first one!!! 
          A Proper Education ended up being a love letter to perfectionists and parentified elder siblings, to carers and those left behind after loss. I hope that if you see yourself in any of these characters or their stories that you know you aren't alone. 
          Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart, and I hope you all join me for the utter mischief that will be Matt's story :D

Hello Lovely Readers! Teeny-tiny delay on the final chapter of aPE as I am rewriting and redrafting it until it's perfect. I think I found the problem now though, so hoping to post it in the next 24 hrs! 
          Thank you all so much for being on this journey with me - drop your replies below to let me know what you're hoping to see in the final chapter of Simon and Fiona's journey!

Hello Lovely Readers! ... I have shocking news. Truly SHOCKING news. 
          ... 
          ... 
          ... 
          I finished it. I finished writing A Proper Education. Every paragraph, every chapter, even the epilogue. It's done! I am overjoyed and maybe in shock?
          I am going to re-read them as we speak and then, probably tomorrow, I'll publish the final chapters. Then book 3 of the Humphrey Chronciles, Simon and Fiona's journey that we've waited so long for, will be over! 
          I might cry.

Hello Lovely Readers! I'm on a roll! Chapter 28 of aPE was just posted - that's two chapters in two days for those counting (!) - and there are now only THREE chapters of aPE remaining. I'm in SHOCK. Partial credit goes to chatGPT (not in that way, hear me out!) because I have finally found a good use for it - making AI neg me into not procrastinating any longer! It turns out I am shockingly easy to manipulate, even when I have deliberately requested to be manipulated... not sure what that says about me, but it's working in my favour for now! 
          My (mostly unachievable) goal is to finish aPE today (!!!), but if not today, then I am on track for this week (omg). Please keep your votes and comments flowing - let me know if you're as desperate for a happy ending as I am!!
