What a beautiful place to be reading! I hope you're enjoying the Gargoyles and the sunshine 😊📚✨️

Ah, thank you Jacqui! 😊💖

Hah! True. I hadn't thought of that, but you're right

Magic is neither good nor bad, it amplifies the dreams you feed it. Since the dawn of time, gargoyles have gathered around sources of magic to protect us from the worst things people dream up. Most gargoyles choose a human Guardian to work alongside them. Under some duress, Zariel chose Callen.

Hooray! I'm delighted that you and the bookworms enjoyed it 😊

Gosh, I hadn't clocked that you're dyslexic - I'll tell my daughter. It's incredibly reassuring to see grown-ups who've faced the same struggles but are now thriving. Made by dyslexia was ace for that - she did a school project looking at the impact of their campaign

Sing it from the rooftops:
📢 Proper funding for school libraries!
The graphic novels in our state school library were treasured artifacts, handled with reverence. I think there was even a rule about only reading them in the library rather than taking them out. They were read and re-read.

My daughter is dyslexic. She worried that people at school would see her reading MG in her teens and judge her. Graphic novels were a total lifeline. Text with images for context is so much easier for her and they're not embarrassing to be seen with in secondary school. If only there were more...

One of my kids was (still is) a book addict. Our local indie bookshop was a brilliant place to discover new authors / series. Having bought the first one, we'd get the rest through the library. Children's booksellers are so good at 'if you like that, try this'

Thank you for having me on #BooklingsChat Lucas. I really enjoyed chatting with you ☺️

Happily, my cat is an expert writer's cat - if I'm writing, she's sleeping. It's a good way to stay put and keep working. It's called being inca-puss-itated

I love the amount of quirky humour hidden on the rooftops of some very venerable buildings. I found all sorts of gargoyles when I was doing research - from aliens to dancing foxes and everything in between

Wow! That's so cool. I love that. A never ending story in stone
