I often get asked about my research for the books I’ve written. It’s my favourite part and there’s always plenty of it! Here are a few of the books I read while I was researching The Flight.

I was listening to an audio book on my way to the gym this morning, as usual, when suddenly, the plot to my next book FELL INTO MY HEAD! 🤯 Right now, it’s my best book ever! (That’s because I haven’t spoiled it by writing it yet 😂)

When I first started going to book festivals, I would get really nervous about going up to authors and asking them to sign books and for photos etc. I did think I’d got over it, but meeting Karin Slaughter at the weekend proves I absolutely have not 😂

My @capitalcrime.bsky.social book haul! A couple of old favourites, and quite a few new-to-me authors 😁

It's been seven years since I left my well-paid career job. I jotted down a few thoughts in a blog post on my website. www.heatherjfitt.com/heathers-blo...

A Crime and Thriller Festival with a Difference — Heather J Fitt

With only a few days to go until Capital Crime in St Paul’s, London, one of the UK’s biggest crime and thriller festivals, I thought it might be nice to write a kind of ‘Beginner’s Guide’ to the festi...

It’s taken me much longer than it should have to get to this point - almost six months - but I am finally at the stage where I can call my manuscript a novel 😁 The end is in sight, and I have about 15,000 words left to write. (Then it’s time for draft two, but that’s a concern for another day!)

I had a brilliant time last night at @sarahpinborough.bsky.social book launch for new book We Live Here Now. If you like creepy, haunted house books, I absolutely recommend you pick this one up!

Listening to The Loney by Andrew Michael Hurley and struggling with it a bit. I’m about a third of the way through and wondering if it’s likely to get going soon?

I’m on the hunt for recommendations again! This time I’m looking for dark-ish vampire books. Specifically crime related. (I’ve already read The Gathering and Blood Like Mine.) Or movies like Underworld. (Not looking for anything like Twilight.) 🧛‍♀️

Off again! This time I’m head to Cambridge to help launch National Crime Reading Month at Bodies in the Bookshop 🤓 #pickupapageturner

If you’ve enjoyed reading a book, the greatest way to thank the author is to leave a review. There has been a lovely little bump in sales of Open You Eyes recently (thank you!) & it would mean so much to me if you would leave a review on Amazon (or anywhere!) if you enjoyed it 😁

We Live Here Now by Sarah Pinborough is one of the most spine-tinglingly creepy books I have ever read! Haunted house books where the ending lives up to the unsettling and tense build up are few and far between, but Sarah has absolutely nailed it here!

I’ve bought a few books recently and it occurred to me I haven’t shared any of them with you 😁 Let me know if you’ve read any and which you think I should read first 🤓

If you know me, then you’ll also know how much I admire and respect Laura Bates (Her book, Men Who Hate Women, inspired my debut novel, Open Your Eyes.) The work she does to try to make the world a safer place for women is beyond admirable.

Episode Three of - How Do You Use Up An Entire Joint Of Ham? Well basically, you can’t have ham without ham, egg and chips! 😝

Here we go! Many thanks to Marrisse Whittaker for this suggestion… Northumbrian Broth! Not only was it delicious, but it reminded me of my mum’s soup with added ham 🥰 (This is one we will be making a lot of, especially in the winter!)

I know how much you enjoyed the spinach series, so when we won a huge ham at the meat raffle last week, I thought I’d bring you part 2! 😆 This week will be all about finding fun & interesting ways to use up this ham. First, roast dinner 😁 Beautiful salty deliciousness with amazing homemade gravy 😋

Check out this fab review of Open Your Eyes 😁
