Look who's back in print! We had a bunch of issues after a cyber attack on the printers and a new giant warehouse caused this book to mysteriously disappear for a while, but Violet is now back on the case 🤞

A Case of Misfortune update! The book has been out of print for a while due to an unfortunate combo of a cyber attack at the printers and a new warehouse for the publishers with new systems. But a reprint has now been ordered and hopefully the book will be available again next month🔮

Thanks so much to everyone who came to see me over the weekend for the 10 year anniversary of Scarlet and Ivy! It's been really cool to hear from people who've loved the series and I'm so glad it's still going strong.

Found this AI picture on a school dinners website and concerned by what it thinks British school is like. Apparently it's 1904 and kids eat cake on a bed of beans and lettuce
