NEWS
It is with great pleasure that I can officially announce that I will be working in collaboration with the Whyalla Public Library in this year’s Reading and Writing Festival.
The RaW Festival aims to showcase some of Regional Australia’s amazing and diverse storytellers. As a child who spent so much of my time at the public library, just being asked to speak as a guest feels like a real honour.
So, you can imagine my surprise when they suggested that I not only speak at the event, but also lead a couple of workshops aimed to teach the next generation of writers.
The RaW Festival will run from the 14th April until the 16th April and will be held at the Whyalla Library. And you will be able to catch me in person on the Friday morning and on the Sunday morning.
I hope you’ll be there!
April RaW Festival

DDP FASHION LINE
In just a few short weeks, Dual Daggers Publishing with be having it’s first birthday! To celebrate, I’ve been hard at work improving the site, researching visual novel programs and designing the exclusive new Dual Daggers Publishing fashion line… That’s right, A FASHION LINE.
The reason for these changes is as a sole proprietor, I wanted to invest more of my skills - which includes my digital design skills - into the platform that I’m creating. I wanted to further separate Dual Daggers Publishing from businesses who are corporate-led and really build on the foundation I have already created.
Sure, I’m an author and a rogue publisher, but I feel I have so much more to offer, and thanks to Dual Daggers Publishing, I have the opportunity to do that. Anyway, feel free to check out the changes and explore the wider range of stock. I look forward to working with you soon!
EXCITING THINGS ARE HAPPENING…

Let’s all give a warm Dual Daggers welcome to our latest author, Carrie Robyn! (APPLAUSE).
DDP will be working alongside Carrie to get her debut novel, My Imago published soon. Feel free to click the link to below to check out her official Dual Daggers Publishing profile!
Dual Daggers
Writing & Publishing Program
For those who are interested in learning the ins and out of writing and publishing a novel, Dual Daggers Publishing is in the process of putting together a program that teaches you the ins and outs of writing and publishing.
From character creation and their arcs, through to the pros and cons of traditional and independent publishing, this program aims to not only utilise everything I have learned over the last several years, but also provide participants with more resources and tools to help them on their own writing journey…
In a nutshell, it’s everything I wish I knew when I first started out and everything I wish I had been taught through formal education.
As a disclaimer, I will admit that I don’t know everything there is to know (nobody does), and there are no actual rules to writing. Which is why this program is set to teach people many helpful tips and guidelines that many writers either don’t know or forget about entirely…
And at the end of the program, participants will have written their own 70,000-100,000 word novel… Plus, there’s also a chance that I will pick a novel to publish through Dual Daggers Publishing!
There will be more to come on this topic soon, so keep your eyes peeled.

LOVE SPELL
Cover & Preorder
OCTOBER, 13th, 2021
Introducing the latest book to add to our store.
Love Spell (written by Reign Atkins) is a New Adult paranormal romance about witches, werewolves, incubi and cursed bloodlines.
While the entire series will follow the Morris Witches and their Colby werewolf (and I use the term lightly) ‘soulmates’, this book introduces us all to Jennifer Morris. A high school student from a town where the non-mortals live in secret alongside the mortals.
It’s fem-powered, saucy tale which isn’t your typical ‘happily ever after’ love story. In fact, the curse that plagues Jennifer’s entire bloodline will see to it that love only leads to hell for all involved.
While LOVE SPELL is available for preorder, it won’t be released until 2022. So you have plenty of time to get your order in.
To do so, just click the button below.
Also, if you order within the next two weeks, remember to type in the code: RI2RFME to get $10 off!
