Hey #booksky if you want to find out more about the #NZCYA book awards shortlist announced yesterday or are after pukapuka for your tamariki some in te reo Māori, hop on over to their website: www.nzbookawards.nz/new-zealand-... #booksalive

So many amazing books in the NZ CYA Awards this year including five by my publisher @allenandunwinnz.bsky.social #booksky #nzcya #booksalive

Thrilled to see The Apprentice Witnesser Shortlisted in a very strong collection of NZ Books for Children and Young Adults! ... #nzcya #booksalive @allenandunwinnz.bsky.social @allenandunwin.bsky.social

A great day of hiking #murchisongorge #kalbarriNationalPark so very dry. Just the deepest pools remain.

Riches for everyone: Crissi Blair shares her highlights from the kids programme at Auckland Writers Festival! www.thesapling.co.nz/scene-report...

It's rained once in the last 9 months and it only rained for 20 minutes... but still I got caught in it!

So excited the #PandaBookAwards have shortlisted The Ravens Song 🐦‍⬛ written by me and Zana Fraillon for the kids in international schools across China to read and vote for this year. AND it has an international audio book which I know those schools will love thanks to Bolinda Audio. #booksky

I’m sorry #booksky but is there a more gorgeous literary award in the known universe than the 30th anniversary #Aurealisawards?

It’s here! It’s made it across the Nullarbor in one piece and it’s gorgeous! Thank you #AurealisAwards #booksky

I don't see how screaming more hate into the void is going to solve anything?

Storytelling got us into this... the story that there's borders, differences, that profits are more important than people, that someone will take our resources, that corporations are tangible things, that money is worth however much it is or anything at all... can stories get us out? #booksky

Authors, it has neger been more important to make “AI cannot be used at any point of the process of bringing my book to market” a part of your contracts. It’s not enough to tell them you don’t want it. You have to make it **a breach of contract** for them to do it. #booksky
