Hi there,
Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I write books, walk in the woods, swim in any water that’ll have me, talk to cats (sometimes they talk back), dance around naked, howl at the moon, you know just normal girl’s stuff. I do most of this in or around my home, in a small village in Drenthe, the Netherlands, where I’ve lived since summer 2022.
My mother is Norwegian and my father was Irish. I grew up bilingual, mostly in Norway and a little in the UK. Since moving to the Netherlands in 2008, English has been my primary language (I do also speak Dutch fluently by now) and my language of choice for writing.
In February 2024 I achieved a lifelong goal and published my first ever book – a book of poetry titled Murmurations. You can purchase a signed paperback directly from me in my shop, and it’s also available from Amazon (not signed). The e-book should be available from most vendors (Apple, Google, Kobo…)
Current projects include cosy crime, romance, and fantasy, as well as more poetry (yes, I do have too many ideas..). More to come on that later.
I irregularly post stuff on Instagram and Bluesky under @sarahcominghome, and you can find me on YT and FB under the name Sarah Thompson Writing, but I honestly can’t be arsed updating a bunch of social media channels regularly, so feel free to like and subscribe and all that jazz but don’t expect too much, okay?
This photo of me was found amongst my late father’s belongings and is of me around age 7, I think. The doll’s name is Lisa.
