Oooo…excited to see what’s coming next from @christopheredge.bsky.social !

I'm going to try a Bluesky giveaway. Don't know how it's going to go - but I'm giving all three of these books to a school or a family. Cozy crime for 9 - 13 year olds. One winner, UK only. To enter tell me something about Christmas that makes you happy. @nosycrow.bsky.social #Ukkidlit

This is so much the beginning of something - While writing it my mind has gone blank - and I can't find quite a few people on here who I thought were here - suggestions please - tag people below the post go.bsky.app/V2ynqEL

I went on BBC Radio 4: Front Row last night, to talk about celebrity children's authors. It's available now and we start around fifteen minutes in. Grateful to have been asked, as a non-famous commoner, lol. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

I loved Fallout @lesleyparr.bsky.social on first sight, as cover by @daviddean-illus.bsky.social is bloomin’ marvellous! Things get even better as you dive inside. A beautifully written story about friendship & self-discovery. Go read it - with an appropriate 80s playlist in the background! #kidslit

I’m trying to make my first Starter Pack! Where are all my @write-mentor.bsky.social friends? Hub members/writers/anyone involved in any way. I’d love to find everyone on Bluesky. Please give me a wave if you want to be added go.bsky.app/4xu4cAe
