About Holly Craig
Hi. Glad you dropped by. I’m Holly, author of two thrillers THE SHALLOWS and THE RIP both out in 2023 and 2024 with Thomas & Mercer, thriller and crime imprint of Amazon Publishing. This is a space where I hope to inspire, lift, mentor and motivate you to reach that seemingly impossible target of publication. I like to think of it as an online diary that you get to snoop into.
