Sometimes lovely things happen to deserving people.
Ruth Ennis has worked so hard on her craft over the last few years and @littleislandbooks.bsky.social will be publishing her debut YA verse novel next year. I’ve read an early version and it’s terrific. Go, Ruth! 🎉🎉🎉 #discoveririshkidsbooks

I'm so happy to finally share this news.

Shorelines, my debut book, will be published by @littleislandbooks.bsky.social in February 2026.

Shorelines is a young adult verse novel retelling of The Little Mermaid through the lens of a fat protagonist.

I was delighted to attend the launch of #RecommendedIrishReads - an initiative to promote Irish children’s books in Eason stores, books carefully chosen by @childrensbooksireland.ie
A great way to #DiscoverIrishKidsBooks and well done to all involved!

Popped into the British Ljbrary to see the Medieval Women:In Their Own Words exhibition (which was absolutely brilliant and I will post about that shortly) but in the meantime, found Fia and Solas sitting proudly on the gift shop shelf! @britishlibrary.bsky.social

Mim is Mardi Gras ready!

Congrats to Eilish Fisher, Isla McGuckin, Judith McQuoid and Molly Harris who are mentees on Patricia Forde's Live Literature Mentorship Programme!
