If you've always wanted to write for kids but haven't known where to start, why not join me at Writing NSW, where I'll be leading a six-week writing workshop, exploring how to write picture books, junior fiction and middle-grade novels! Starting June 3! writingnsw.org.au/whats-on/cou...

I'm so looking forward to teaching at @writingnsw this June, for six weeks, every Tuesday night, sharing everything I know about writing for young people. If you dream about writing picture books and novels but need inspiration and community this might be the course for you!

I've just finished reading 'The Cost of Living,' by Deborah Levy. It's a thought-provoking meditation on marriage, motherhood and creativity. With fire and ice, Levy explores the price female artists tend to pay in juggling a life of love and creativity. So grateful for Levy's writerly wisdom.

Hello blue sky! Here's a little glimpse of the brilliance of illustrator Leila Rudge in our picture book, 'Hello World,' published by @harpercollins.bsky.social. And here's to the great goodness of being in community together, chatting about kids books, and everything in between!
