It’s my Birthday today! 🥹 Another spin around the sun 😁 not gonna lie, it’s been a mad reflective year in many ways (turning 40 will do that to you), but I’m happy to say I had a good year in many ways. Here’s some bits from the year I liked 🥰…I’m off to eat some cake.
My first picture book, a collaboration with the wonderful Sandhya Prabhat, will be out next year with @LittleTigerUK. More info here: littletiger.co.uk/acquisition-an…
On this day in 2017, one of the very best women ever to walk this earth departed to another plane. Everything I have done at and with @TLCUK since has been with you in mind, Becky. It is the greatest honour to have got us to where we are now. I love you. Your devoted Bumblebee x
Am so excited to be on this shortlist! 🙏🏽🩷And promotions for this book were THE best! Other favs promos included a Bollywood black tie dinner and dance, a @kuchkuchnights club night with the legend @djritu1 AND a @MuseumofColour mid-morning dance session at @southbankcentre 😁

Honestly, while I truly appreciate everyone who’s reached out to me privately these last few days to express support and agreement…I wish more of you would actually speak up publicly in the face of this BS. 🤷🏿♂️
Thrilled that @BTTFspace is partnering with Christie's @ChristiesInc for a series of stand alone events this year including Manifesto for Black Futures supported by @bcaheritage @RSLiterature thebookseller.com/news/black-to-…
I really just feel like some people should be embarrassed by their timeline April Fool's jokes. Very tacky. Corny. Crass. Unnecessary.
