Thursday Twitter Takeover: Kat Ellis

Each week, an accomplished published author takes over the YEM Twitter account for Thursday’s Twitter Takeover. Each week, the YA author will answer questions, tell stories, and give advice on our social media. This week author Kat Ellis will be taking over our Twitter account.

Kat Ellis is the author of several young adult novels. Her works include Harrow Lake, PurgeBreaker, and Blackfin Sky, as well as a novella within the Three Strikes collection titled The Twins of Blackfin. Kat studied English with Creative Writing at Manchester Metropolitan University, then spent several years working in local government communications and IT.  When she is not writing, Kat can usually be found exploring ruins and cemeteries with her camera. She is an active blogger, instagrammer and tweeter. Her book Burden Falls is coming summer ‘21.

Kat’s most recent novel is Harrow Lake. Lola Nox is the daughter of a celebrated horror filmmaker – she thinks nothing can scare her. But when her father is brutally attacked in their New York apartment, she’s swiftly packed off to live with a grandmother she’s never met in Harrow Lake, the eerie town where her father’s most iconic horror movie was shot.

The locals are weirdly obsessed with the film that put their town on the map – and there are strange disappearances, which the police seem determined to explain away. And there’s someone – or something – stalking Lola’s every move. The more she discovers about the town, the more terrifying it becomes. Because Lola’s got secrets of her own. And if she can’t find a way out of Harrow Lake, they might just be the death of her…
