Matryoshka by Penny Jones5/10/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Everyone was part of the conspiracy so she hid her fears until her psychosis was so acute she was no longer able to hide it. For her it felt as if she was living in a nightmare where one by one her family were being replaced by their evil twins. It was a terrifying time for both her and her family. I’m a trained mental health nurse and one of my patients developed postpartum psychosis, but during the last two weeks of their pregnancy rather than following the birth. It’s actually based loosely on a patient of mine from years ago. Matryoshka is about child birth, loss of identity and post-partum psychosis. I believe your Novella Matryoshka Is due out in April? What can you tell us about that? Although I do have a couple of poems published, a novel that is currently doing the rounds of agents and publishers, and a novella that is due out in April. ![]() But I would say I am drawn to dark fiction and horror, especially in the short form and the majority of my work tends to sit within that remit. ![]() So the majority of the time my work tends to be dependent on what publishers are looking for. I still see myself as very new writer so my work tends to be whatever open submissions catch my fancy, or if I’m lucky I might get invited to submit something to a publisher. Would you like to tell us a bit about your work? Penny is contactable on Twitter Penny! Thanks so much for agreeing to be on Rebbie Reviews this month! ![]()
