All the excitement of It’s Strange Up North … without having to go! Come for the signing queue - stay for Sunyi Dean’s dog. #ISUN #itsstrangeupnorth

I first met Beatriz in 2015 at Grim Gathering II, and the second meeting was in 2025 at It's Strange Up North in Leeds. But we've chatted online every now and then over the decade in between. Meeting your readers makes a big difference to authors (this one at least).

I signed a bunch of books for Waterstones Leeds and they will have some by at least 19 other SFF authors following the It's Strange Up North Event (many thanks to Sarah for hosting us!) Also signed a wide variety of my titles at Waterstones York So go grab 'em 🙂
