It’s that time of year again…Libby’s birthday AND Ghana Independence Day… 🎂🥳🤩
No, Jack, you don't understand. Libby is short for Liberty. My birthday is the 6th March, which is Ghana Independence Day, so my parents called me Liberty.

I know I should just block and move on, but ‘people’ like these REALLY grind my gears. They prey on authors’ desire to connect with readers and take their money. . .Decided to introduce this person to the wind-up merchant side of my nature… And it worked! 🤣
🎉🎉🎉
Went for a drink (or 3) with Dr K and when I say we needed that… I cannot express how much we needed that. ☺️ he didn’t wear his matching jumper in case you’re wondering. Am now in a darkened room watching The Incredible Hulk TV series while he watches Curling downstairs… 😅
Babes, I have quite a few events coming up in London, Edinburgh, Manchester and Brighton, Birmingham and online to celebrate publication of The Quiet Girls. 🤞🏾 I’ll see you at one of them. Visit www.dorothykoomson.co.uk/events for more details

You helped make the world a better place to be. 😞
Babes, want to make half-term THE BEST for your youngster and yourself? Grab a copy of The Street Art Mystery by Sharna Jackson ( @sharnajackson.com). Like all her other books, it is WONDERFUL! That’s it, that’s the tip to get through half-term. 😍

I don’t know why he’s not laughing…I think I’m hilarious. 😅🤣 #MurdochMysteries
You know that saying, ‘Every accusation is a confession?’
That.
By the bucketload.
But will find you. X
There is a lot of Ai slop.
Anyone on Upscrolled? Am giving it a try and will follow you over there if you are. X
😭😭😭
I crocheted my latest book a cute little off-the-shoulder jumper in its cover colours. I think she likes it. 😍 It also makes the book very huggable…and believe me, you’ll need something to hug reading some of the high-thrill scenes in this book…😉☺️ Do you love my book jumper as much as I do?
Why, thank you! X
Gave someone a Kez Lanyon bundle today. She’s going to start with Every Smile You Fake, obvs. This trio looks so pretty together, wrapped up in special ‘Enjoy Your New Kez Lanyon Thriller’ ribbon.
ICYDK: The Quiet Girls will be out in hardback on 12 March. 🤩😍
Another FB memory. This photo is 22 years old - me at the launch of my rom-com second novel, The Chocolate Run in a pub in London. Was so much fun.
Got all the colours out for beautiful Dani’s Nine Night. She made the world a wonderful place to be. Still can’t believe she’s gone. So much love in the room tonight. ❤️
Gosh, this just popped up on FB memories. I’d forgotten this. Nice to have this reminder that my work does have impact beyond telling a good story. ❤️
Thank you! X
I’m trying to find new ways to relax and improve my mental health so have decided to learn how to crochet properly. I made this Granny Square in a workshop today and I think it’s boss, as my Scouser husband NEVER says. 😅 It’s perfectly imperfect and I love it. Will keep you updated on my progress.🧶
Absolutely devastated that another beautiful soul has passed away. Still in shock. Danielle was a wonderful, talented person - full of creativity, integrity and compassion. The world of TV and the world in general has lost a great person. I’m so sad.
Happy New Year, Beloveds! I’m hoping that 2026 brings all the good things we need personally and globally. See you on this road. ❤️
Yay! We’ve reached my favourite part of the year, with my favourite game of the year - The ‘Where The Jeff Did I Hide The Presents I’ve Been Buying Throughout The Year’ Game! 🙃🫣🤣 Every year the same thing!
Dr K and I have got matching jumpers. We wore them out shopping today. I regret nothing.
PS Don’t come at me with hat*r energy. Am not interested. Like I say, I regret nothing. 😎
MERRY KEZ-MAS! I accidentally created a crime-thriller series. I LOVED writing about Dr Kez Lanyon so much that I had to do it again and again. Currently writing Kez Lanyon Book 4. You can buy Every Smile You Fake & Give Him To Me now and pre-order The Quiet Girls. Have a very merry Kez-mas! 🤶🏾🎄😍
👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾
Christmas has officially arrived in our house - Dr K & I have watched our first Christmas movie. Have also decided to manifest writing a Christmas film for 2026. Pls check in on me next year, OK? Am determined to make it happen.* 🤶🏾🎄
*If you know anyone who can make it happen, send them my way. 🤞🏾🙏🏾🎄🤶🏾
