Welcome to the second in my series of Author Spotlight interviews, which aim to give an overview of each author’s background and approach to writing, and a slightly more detailed look at one of their books in particular. In this instalment I spoke to Jamie Crisalli about her work for Black Library, from the process of coming through an open submissions window to her new Age of Sigmar (well, technically Warcy) novella The Measure of Iron. Whether you’ve read all of Jamie’s BL short stories already or not, this is a great opportunity to find out more about an up and coming author!

Author Spotlight: Thomas Parrott
Welcome to this Author Spotlight interview, in which I chat to Thomas Parrott about his writing for Black Library, including his new Blackstone Fortress novella Isha’s Lament which, at the time of writing, has just gone up for pre-order. Having had a few stories published now, with plenty more still to come out, Tom’s name is becoming increasingly familiar to BL fans, so this is a great time to get to know him a bit more. Here he talks about his early inspirations and how he ended up working with Black Library, and gives us the lowdown on the new novella.
Author Spotlight: Matt Smith
With the release of his second short story for Black Library, The Twisted Runes, I thought it was about time I had a quick chat with new author Matt Smith to find out a little about his background, how he came to be writing for Black Library, and what we might expect from him in future. It’s always great to read stories from new authors, and I’m sure I’m not the only person excited to see what Matt comes up with next.
