Do you need a new book? Do you want a new book? Do you agree you can never have enough books?
Then help a lovely #indie and buy it from Fox Lane Books 🦊 🦊📚 #choosebookshops

Nothing makes me feel more like a rockstar than pre-ordering on the GAIL's Bakery app 🤩

Wonderful to waltz in and out with my hot chocolate and completely avoid the commuter queue!

Oh no, this is horrible 😢. Let’s all give The Book Nook a boost with some online shopping this weekend #ChooseBookshops

Had the loveliest evening chairing the Q & A of A.F. Steadman at 🏳️‍🌈📚 Waterstones Basingstoke 📚🏳️‍🌈 launch event for Skandar and the Chaos Trials.
Thanks to Waterstones for organising & to Annabel for being such a delight. So brilliant to see so many kids in a room excited about reading!

MICHAEL NEEDS YOU! Book 2 launches next week and pre-orders REALLY help to show booksellers that there's interest in the book. So... if you'd like a book about a fabulous mind-reading sausage dog, can I persuade you to pre-pawder this weekend? 😁🐾😁 Links in the next post!

Michael’s got MERCH! And some fabulous new pink cowboy boots. 🤩🤩🤩

Less than a week until the second Michael book is out! Big thank you to Swapna Haddow for the lovely endorsement. I'm a huge Dave Pigeon fan so this means a lot 🥰

TOMORROW!

I can’t wait to get my paws on Michael the Incredible Super-Sleuth Sausage Dog! 🐾🔍

Oh no! Although I pre-ordered my copy of Skandar and the Chaos Trials from an indie bookshop, it wasn’t the indie special edition that arrived in the post today (which I really wanted to match the first two). 😭

Do any #indie #bookshops still have the special edition?

Publication day today for two books I love with my whole heart - the last Villains Academy by Ryan Hammond (😭) and Theo Parish's groundbreaking memoir HOMEBODY🏳️‍⚧️. Huge congratulations Ryan and Theo!

What comes next after a mind-reading sausage dog? Shapeshifting snails of course! SNAILS OF THE UNEXPECTED is coming out next spring with Firefly Press. Written by me, and illustrated by the awesome Brenda Figueroa 🐌🤩🐌🤩

I’ll be at Barnes BarnesKidsLitFest this year on Sunday 23rd June at 1pm talking all about Skandar and the Chaos Trials!
Tickets go on sale this Saturday 👇

Buzzing for judging this competition - MG will always have my heart and I want to find more!
