Leamington friends! I will be celebrating the launch of The Best of Everything at Waterstones Leamington on 10th April. Tickets are free - just email leamingtonspa@waterstones.com and come party with me :) www.waterstones.com/events/the-b...

That's a weird way to spell "suspected rapist and human trafficker".

Wohoooo for a beautiful book launch. Congratulations @hollowaywriter.bsky.social and @epoquepress.bsky.social #speirgorm #irishwriting #debutnovel

I keep forgetting about this platform. Any craic, lads? Last time I dipped in here I felt like I was talking to myself. #xisadump

@marklittle.bsky.social Hi Mark, could you drop me a DM on Instagram or the twitter hell hole with your work email?! I have a proposal for you ☺️

Happy Christmas, Bluesky friends. It's officially chrimbo for many because of school closures and the 'big' done/nearly done. Let the food cooking, family craic and mischief begin.

Please share - New Prize for non-fiction for black women writers, amplifying us as knowledge-makers and critical thinkers. Global scope with a $20,000 award for exceptional work by black cis, trans and genderqueer women. Details here. Judged by Bernadine Evaristo.

I'm actually over the moon for Paul Lynch. So well deserved. It's one of the best books I've ever read and in light of the state of the world, it's plausible.

Tonight I'm raising a glass to the absolute ledgebags that make up the Irish literary scene. We're blessed with the talent and good will on our island. Break legs, all of you going to the An Post Irish Book Awards tonight. Nominated or not. I'll be back next year 😍

This is my new Bluesky pleasure. Over on FB it's insects, now here for wild flowers. Ain't nature grand!
