As we move into the holidays, please remember: READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest impact of any factor on children's life chances. So never stop sharing books with kids, talking about books, making books central to everything you do. Never stop changing their lives! #literacy #EduSky #books

Netflix - please stop minimising the end credits of movies to suggest something else. Let viewers enjoy the soundtrack and see the cast and crew that worked on the film. We'll exit it ourselves when ready to.

Making a starter pack for authors who do school visits, so schools can easily find us. This starts off one for primary schools go.bsky.app/5u2ArqX but I'll also do one for secondary. Let me know if you do school visits and you want to go on the list - and whether you do primary or secondary. Thanks.

Apparently just seen there are some settings deep in Microsoft Word you have to switch off to ensure it doesn’t harvest everything you’re fucking typing to feed this bloated tech bro science fair project. FEED ME, SEYMOUR.
