I love writing retreats but I never try to write anything! I'm there for the writers, the lovely creative atmosphere, but perfectly happy to enjoy the local area in the daytime when other people are at their desks

TEACHERS, LIBRARIANS, PARENTS! If you're looking for a free bookish activity for your kids, here's a lesson-long virtual school visit I did with @booktrust.bsky.social, all about how I went from being a young reader to writing books like Varjak Paw & Tyger! #BookSky

It's microsoft office's one that's driving me nuts - they imposed it, no opting in, and it's impossible to find out how to get rid of it. Infuriating.

What you’re doing is incredibly important in this time where money is tight for so many families. To be able to find books and read widely is crucial for children. #SupportLibraries
