Read this during the rain yesterday- unexpected & massively enjoyable. Quirky & great to be able to read something in one sitting … & apparently I read it with a smile on my face!

Look what I saw on the desk of Secondhand yesterday!

Just seen in the other place - wow: How to Listen - James Clews

If you were in Arboretum today and your friend escaped … we have him safe in store! Let me know how we can get you reunited!

The mighty Ciara Geraghty - writer of sharp, funny, witty books that make you want to both curl up & become lost AND call your friends to chat/vent/laugh has written a children’s book - Wanda Broom & I think I might borrow a child to read it to!

More forthcoming events … free tickets on www.eventbrite.ie/d/ireland--k...

Signing! Andrew Meehan - Best Friends- a total delight of a book!

I wrote about Saturday’s event in store - it was personal - I had a child who wanted to be read to, but wasn’t reaching for books himself & it was breaking my heart … & spirit!! An amazing librarian - Imelda & @darrenshan.com cured both! chaptersbookstore.com/blogs/news/t...

Saturday was an incredibly special day for us all in store - a reminder of the power of one writer to inspire. It is a disservice to the craft & dedication of writers to say they are 'born', in a similar way it is a disservice to readers not to recognise that they are 'made' & 'maintained'!

I had a fab time in Chapters Bookstore Dublin yesterday, with 110 fans. After a reading and Q&A, I signed for almost 4 and a half hours! For a fuller report of the day, and info about where I'm coming next on tour, click here: darrenshan.com/news/chapter... @chaptersbookstore.bsky.social

I attended the @darrenshan.com event at @chaptersbookstore.bsky.social to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Cirque du Freak - and got to give Darren his very own Madam Octa!

Today is the day!! The mighty @darrenshan.com will be ‘live’ at noon!! We are still open & trading as usual! Huge buzz & excitement in store!

Yesterday’s mood … hoping today is better … 😂

For picture books, I think a lot of the pacing comes from the page turns and the reveals each turn gives. #kidlitchat

15 ☢️ sessions done. 😊 The bluest of blue skies, #TheMorrigan gifted to me by the ever kind and supportive @chaptersbookstore.bsky.social, and the Tay! ☕️ 😎 #PerfectAfternoon. #GorgeousWeather #amreading

I love the new Archive Penguins!

Over Easter I bought The Vengeance by @emmanewman.bsky.social. On Thursday The Vengeance by @emmanewman.bsky.social (that I originally ordered) arrived in the post. Today @chaptersbookstore.bsky.social rang me to let me know that my order for The Vengeance by @emmanewman.bsky.social had arrived.
