When I was in my early 20s I had a small, chance encounter with Paul Auster. I’ve told it before, but on account of the sad news, I will tell it again. #PaulAuster
I'm excited to see that 'The Boy in the Smoke' 🌬 has been shortlisted for The Sheffield Libraries Children’s Book Award, longer novel! Thanks @SheffLibraries 😊
So unbelievably proud that #FriendshipNeverEnds was longlisted for #JhalakPrize24! I had so much fun writing this book and I love these four girls to pieces 🥹
Today we celebrate @alexsheppard longlisted for Jhalak C&YA Prize 24 for #FriendshipNeverEnds, a joyful, moving coming of age story of four young people . We will be sharing reviews, interviews, readings and even a book giveaway through the day. #JhalakPrize24#JhalakShowcase
THIS BOOK! Danielle Jawando is an astonishing writer. Blown away by If My Words Had Wings, a powerful and hopeful story about prison, poetry, new beginnings and the sheer injustice of how the system views young Black boys. Out 9th May.
Today is my 1-year anniversary of agenting! ✨Even though it’s a wfh job and I’ve done a lot of it in sweatpants (ok, most of it) I’ve had one of the toughest and most rewarding years of my working life. I’ve received 5,000 queries, signed 11 authors, gone on sub 11 times 🧵
We are delighted to be supported by Hachette Children's Group this year! This support includes involvement in writer pitching events & providing editorial/design feedback, hosting an illustration shadowing day, & more. A big thanks to @HachetteKids for championing our mission!✨
I've written 38 chapters and 85k words of something that resembles a novel. I began in 2003 with a vague idea to write a family saga but it took a global pandemic for me to sit down and finally write the thing.
when people read them. Let’s normalize being happy with what we have achieved as writers, not ashamed of what we haven’t. After all, anything beyond writing the book is not in our control ❤️ 2/2
Hey, not for any big reason, mainly for my own curiosity, what published kids’ authors live in the Midlands? I know of a fair few, but I’m often asked and I feel like I’m missing some.
This is wonderful to see. So proud of all these fantastically talented authors on the longlist. It was a joy to judge it with Danielle Jawando and @RashmiWriting
The @jhalakprize long lists are looking inspirational

Compartmentalising is a privilege when the world is in this state but it’s the only way I can do the things I need to get done. I keep reminding myself that this (writing for children) is the little corner in which I can make a difference in some small way.
@RashmiWriting Rashmi - you do more than enough. I’ve had to step away from all the horror - not because I don’t care - I care too much & it makes me physically ill - body can’t take it - staying away was my actual medical prescription. You owe no one explanations - especially the Twitterverse.
Seriously, I don't quote tweet much any more because I am lost for words. REALLY lost for words. I don't understand this world any longer.
What do you even call this? Mass destruction? Genocide? Erasure? We’re running out of terms with this terror campaign.
