I am beside myself that The World Between the Rain has been nominated for the Carnegie Medal for Writing @carnegiemedals.bsky.social. This one is special because it's nominated by librarians - always my favourite people @cilip.bsky.social

Myself and @sineadohart.bsky.social had the immense privilege of speaking with @ianeagletonauthor.bsky.social this week on Storyshaped, & it was a heartfelt, moving, & very fun conversation about finding your own voice, fighting against prejudice, and (not) fitting in.
