Fabulous launch for the brilliant Clare Harlow’s Tide Magic in Waterstones, Greenwich. And I got to catch up with lovely Gill Perdue and Susie too.
This book is wonderful, timeless and classic… you have to read it.

How I woke up this morning…

How can my first book be 3 today?! Time has flown but I’m just as grateful as I was three years ago ❤️

Went for a coffee with a friend this morning & was approached by a little girl who recognised me from an author visit. She told me she’s read all 3 Doughnuts books twice and that they’re her favourite. Made my day… especially timely as it’s book one’s third birthday tomorrow ❤️

What a fabulous book launch for the amazing Lucy Strange tonight. Can’t wait to read The Island at the Edge of Night!
So good to talk favourite authors with Lindsay Galvin THE GREAT PHOENIX OF LONDON🐦‍🔥 too, and catch up with lovely friends Rosemary Hill Books & Penny Chrimes
So nice I forgot to take photos!

Always a pleasure to visit the Natural History Museum Natural History Museum
This T-Rex will always have a special place in my heart as it’s in front of a very special location in Monster Doughnuts (the entrance to Monster World!)…

Great day at the FCBG conference and gala dinner with the Maidstone LitFest team today. So many great authors and a lovely time talking about books, writing, authors and lots of things I like very much with friends, old and new. Plus, my books were in the FCBG shop. Yay!

What a very lovely thing to be sent on a Sunday afternoon. Well done, Amelia, this drawing is amazing!

It's #internationalreadtomeday ! Here are the team's top picks to read aloud with kids. Pick up a book and get stuck in!

So excited to be part of this again! Keep an eye out for lots of news coming in the next few weeks…

Huge congratulations to Penny Chrimes on her fabulous book launch last night for her new book Moon Shifter. Couldn’t be more proud to know this wonderful lady and massively talented writer. The Maidstone LitFest team had a blast.

An early World Book Day celebration and what a costume!!!
So happy to have been sent this photo today. I’m in awe.

Is anyone looking for an agent for a truly immersive novel with an original and confident voice because that’s what I want to represent now? Something I’ve never read before, but that my heart recognises. That’s the brief!

It was a brilliant visit and I loved every minute!

Two great school visits today with the best book supplier in the world Rosemary Hill Books and more awesome displays!

Went to see the fantastic Monster Doughnuts display at VIPS@Aylesford this week and it’s AMAZING!
I couldn’t be more thrilled they chose my books & Sarah Horne’s fabulous illustrations as the theme.
The biggest thank you possible goes to Art Lead, Siobhan, who is just the best.
