Pottermore and Audible Unveil Full-Cast Harry Potter Audiobooks with Release Timeline
In April 2024, Pottermore Publishing and Audible announced a brand-new co-production of the original Harry Potter stories, revisiting the beloved listening experience for the first time ever. I covered that announcement when it first broke, but today’s reveal is even more thrilling: the full-cast lineup is here — and it’s packed with talent. Over 200 performers will bring J.K. Rowling’s wizarding world to life in an ambitious audio project unlike anything the franchise has seen before.

Doctor Who’s Fifteenth Era: A Masterclass in Missed Potential
When Russell T Davies returned to Doctor Who, backed by Disney and a bigger budget, the buzz was undeniable. With Ncuti Gatwa cast as the Fifteenth Doctor — the first openly gay Black actor to take the role — the stage was set for a bold new era.

Why I Wrote “The Storyteller Chronicles”
Every writer gets asked: "Where do your ideas come from?" There are times when that’s difficult to answer, but not in this case. I know exactly where the inspiration for this book started. Honestly, The Storyteller Chronicles all started because of my nieces, nephews and stepsister who wanted to see themselves as the heroes of their own story. Literally.

Echoes in the Living Room
The clock in the living room still ticks like it always did—slow, deliberate, every second marked with a kind of polite finality. That same floral ticking that used to lull me to sleep as a child, back when I’d stretch out on this rug with my colouring books while she hummed something soft in the kitchen. It still ticks. Still keeps time. But somehow, time isn’t happening.

Why Katniss Ends Up with Peeta. Top Story - June 2025.
Recently, a surprising controversy emerged in the book community when bestselling author Ali Hazelwood made a lighthearted remark about The Hunger Games character Peeta Mellark during a panel discussion. The backlash escalated so aggressively that Hazelwood deactivated her Instagram account entirely. As a fellow writer and reader, I find this deeply disheartening.
