New year, new newsletter! If you're not signed up, you can here! But also if you're not checking email yet...here! It's about The Dark is Rising and NK Jemisin and why it's ok to be as subtle as a large rock to the head sometimes. #KidLitUK open.substack.com/pub/louiesto...

‘In Charley’s eyes, Wilbert Heaven was a god. Not only had he played all the best clubs in Harlem, he had met all the ‘greats’ and had actually seen the famous tap-dancing Nicholas Brothers performing first hand!’ The Great Theatre Rescue 13/02/25 @faberchildrens.bsky.social #ukkidlit #kidlituk

‘By day it looked nothing out of the ordinary. By night it was something special. Ablaze with twinkling lights spelling out The Wren in glamorous swirling letters. It was the smallest theatre in Soho, but also one of the best.’ The Great Theatre Rescue Feb 13th #KIDLITUK @faberchildrens.bsky.social

I'm looking for Creative Writing academics - do you know any here? I made a Starter Pack for those I've spotted already, but I know there must be many more (and my list skews female right now!). Reply to be added (or taken off, of course). Thanks! go.bsky.app/3Tumz8d #AcademicSky #writingcommunity

Have spent a rainy few days in Coniston, walking and visiting the homes of John Ruskin, William Wordsworth, and Beatrix Potter. This is Dorothy W’s special tea-cup - which cost a bit more than she anticipated - and meant she couldn’t afford to buy the kettle with which to make her tea ❤️

I was over the moon when I heard that The Secret Starling is going to be DANCED by the youth team at albertadancetheatre.com and tickets are now on sale!!!! If you happen to live near Calgary and you like stories full of ballet, betrayal and long-lost family then give it a go!

Lovely weekend at #CheltLitFest with my mum and sisters. Listened to some amazing writers talking about their work (highlight was #KateAtkinson) and today #ClareHunter and #AarathiPrasad discussing the politics of embroidery. Plus I got to sign some of my books in the @waterstones.bsky.social tent 🤗
