Good news, everybody!
Black Soil White Bread has been shortlisted for an Australasian Shadow Award for Best Horror Novel! The Shadow Awards are organised by the Australasian Horror Writers Association.
I’m super stoked and humbled about the nomination. And while it’s such a cliche, it’s just an honour to be nominated.
This is my second Shadow Award nomination, I was lucky enough to be nominated in 2019 for my YA supernatural mystery novel The Flower and The Serpent.
Dear Reader
Black Soil White Bread is free from Amazon until 19-August 2025.
Help yourself a slice of Australian folk-horror.
———–
When Nancy reopens her great-aunt Agnes’s award-winning bakery, she doesn’t understand why the locals avoid her shop.
And why they call it ‘the witch house’?
After discovering an old recipe book in the shed, Nancy’s muffins sell out. But when weird things happen and old rumours resurface, who can Nancy trust? And who is telling the truth?
Folklore-inspired Black Soil White Bread is a supernatural mystery about community, loyalty, and the occult.
The amazing Laurie and Veronica were kind enough to invite me onto the Australian Book Lovers Podcast – Writer’s Room with science-fantasy author Zena Shapter to talk all things writing and about my new book Black Soil White Bread.
