I spend almost no time on front twitter anymore but I’ve not left, partly because things this still get shared - seeing young readers enjoying my book is too good to miss 🥰 #ukkidlit

Chuckling to myself ironically as I spend almost as much time editing my ‘complicated’ chapter headers as the rest of the book 🙈 #ukkidlit #amediting

Part way through Starling House by Alix E Harrow I started dreaming of Arthur Starling and now I don’t ever want to stop #dreamybooks

Spent yesterday morning filming short videos for The Housetrap (for some fun stuff coming up) - here’s my backdrop: gorgeous, tranquil Locksbrook Cemetery in Bath. Well … it is a spooky book after all 🖤
