Last week we did an introduction to each of the Coven members of Mythic Alley and a wrap up of their 2025. This week, we’d love to share the projects everyone has brewing in their cauldrons of creativity!

First up Jessica Haines:

• Jess is aiming to complete her demon why choose novel and get it to the editing stage.
• The third book in the Grotesque Brothers series is on her radar, with the intention to dive back into planning and drafting.
• Publication of the as yet unnamed but complete novella in the Goddess romance series is the hope for 2026, along with planning for book two.
• Outside of writing and publishing (sort of) Jess will be returning to the Meet Cute Book Fest again with Emma, to record more flash interviews for the SFFRomCast and meet lots of awesome readers and writers!

Next up Emma Jackson:

• Those waiting on the second book in The Devil’s Bride series, will be happy to know that Forest of Souls and Starlight, the follow up to the gothic paranormal romance, House of Secrets and Shadow, is high on Emma’s list of priorities, with hopes to release it in Autumn.
• Outside of fantasy and paranormal romance, Emma also plans to re-release two of her contemporary romances, Summer in the City (May 2026) and One Kiss Before Christmas (September 2026).
• As mentioned above, she will be off to the Meet Cute Book Fest with Jess, and they will be recording more of the SFFRomCast from January onwards. She is also hoping to dip her toe into the waters of appearing at local craft fairs to sell signed books. We’ll be sure to let you know where and when incase you live near and want to pop by!

Now for Kate Kenzie:

Once again we are sharing Kate’s post which has some teasers of news for 2026!

And last, but by no means least, Emma-Louise Smith:

• Emma-Louise is aiming to publish the second Crestwood Falls book in the early part of 2026. Watch this space for more news!
• Another publication will be Tiding of Terror, a YA horror, and Emma-Louise has plans to write for two different anthologies, as well as three full length novels! A witchy revenge tale, dark paranormal romantasy and a romance!
• Emma-Louise will also be launching the Noctuary: Notes from the Long Dark – a study in folklore, horror, macabre, gothic and paranormal.

So many exciting projects on the bubble! Are there any in particular you’d love to hear more about? Let us know and subscribe now not to miss more of Mythic Alley’s book news!
