I need to shout out @jacquisydney.bsky.social & @karenwallee.bsky.social They have been constant supporters of middle grade & young adult writing. I always see them showing up for debut authors, as well as those of us who are on our 6th or 7th go. I'm so grateful to both of them today! Thank you!

I’ve lost the other bookseller this afternoon. We’re both crackers about books from @dansmithauthor.bsky.social but he beat me to read this first. @barringtonstoke.bsky.social

Hey, just a plug for my Carnegie-nominated #middlegrade novel, #DayoftheWhale. A story exploring manipulation, misinformation, greed and authoritarianism. Those are the depths. On the surface, it's a Utopian island adventure. I'd love you to read it. Seems to fit the now. @troikabooks.bsky.social

Ooh yay! PLR. Authors get a few pence every time someone borrows one of their books from a library. It doesn't amount to Tech-bro levels of income, but it certainly helps. Thank you to everyone who has borrowed one of my books!

Fab review for The Deadsoul Project in Books for Keeps!

submitted 37 days ago • 0 comments

Occasionally pop over to Twi ... sorry, 'X', to have a browse but, blimey, it's a bit grim over there now. There are still some lovely people, but there is so much bile for them to wade through!
