Think the sound of water may be my favourite sound in the world, and it sounds even better after the incessant downpours of rain lately. When it's loud enough to block my thoughts- that is my favourite.

Shared the stage yesterday at Write By The Sea literary festival with some wonderful writers (I name them in ALT text) who contributed to Wired Our Own Way; An Anthology of Autistic Irish Voices @newislandbooks.bsky.social. Thanks to the @irishwriterscentre.bsky.social for sending us!

Nice to see 2 of my books on display at the bookshop at the Write By The Sea festival in Kilmore Quay. Thank you to @irishwriterscentre.bsky.social for sending a panel of Wired Our Own Way to the festival, it was a real joy 💖

Write By The Sea literary festival kicked off last night with an interview of Claire Keegan. I adore her books, so it was a real treat to hear her speak about them in person 💞

25% discount this week on my book for kids (well, I wrote it for kids but a lot of adults have told me it's their favourite book explaining #Autism as it has easy-to-digest information and is fully illustrated by @theorah.bsky.social ).

Happy to finally share the cover of my next book, which will be released August 21st ❤
This book was the hardest book I have written yet, as it required immense research into multiple autistic communication differences.

Went out to my garden to do one quick thing today, but I got lost in the process. Nicest 1.5 hours of my day 😊

Signed some books in @waterstones.bsky.social Cork today. Couldn't help thinking I'd like a "Signed By the Editor" sticker rather than "author" for the anthology as I feel like a bit of a fraud 😂

It's as simple as that. No need to segregate and deny anyone the toilet they want to use.
