You know when you go to a random shop because it's convenient, and then you end up with some pepperoni pizza crisps, some chocolate wafer sticks with cocoa cream in them, and some homemade nut biscuits? Well, that's me this morning

It's that time of year where we see a lot of lists and awards going out. This is your reminder that publishing a book is a huge victory, and even if you don't see your book on those lists, you are amazing. You have achieved something wonderful.
Don't stop. 💛

I've never watched The Traitors, but am intrigued by the interactive book! Has anyone read it/done it? Is it easy to understand? Do I need to have watched it?

If you’re asked to make a gift list this year, and there’s a lot of books on it, include links to independent and/or local bookshops. Make it as easy as possible for your loved ones to support small businesses.

Realised that to actually get words written, I need an entire day out of the house, booked in the diary, purely to concentrate on writing... and it's happening tomorrow! Super looking forward to meeting my agency sister Abbie Osborne!

Parents evening with my 11yo and the teacher said she stays out of the drama. Difficult to keep a straight face. Well, she may stay out of it, but she is an avid watcher. 'MUM!! I'VE GOT TEA!!'

There is no greater joy than an all caps group chat, it fills me with the same brain chemicals I assume Jane Austen felt whenever she got a particularly good bit of gossip.
