Hi. If you dm me an address, I will send you a signed plate, as you had a ticket to the event.

If you too have been afflicted by a terminal uniqueness, and been made to apologise for it?

Fuck 'em.

Unapologetic Love Story is out on World Autism Day and the hardback is currently in the Waterstones Preorder Sale.

I highly recommend.

@ellemcnicoll.bsky.social you were right (as always)! 🔥

Lovely to see @ellemcnicoll.bsky.social @katherinerundell.bsky.social @acaseforbooks.bsky.social on the Orcadian #bookshop clock this week! #IndieBookshops #UKKidLit #BookSky #Orkney

I so wanted to be there. I'm very devastated.

Thank you for understanding.

Hi. I'm really sorry and have addressed this on IG. It was not my decision and the publishers' position will be made clear at a later date.

I've sent Mr B's some signed bookplates and I hate that we've been put in this position.

She sure is 😅

Had a "holy shit" moment at Waterstones Cheltenham earlier. Saw they had a Modern Classics table. It had A Kind of Spark by @ellemcnicoll.bsky.social on it.

A book by a neurodivergent about neurodivergency. Described as a modern classic.

That is officially Awesome.

Thank you to @ellemcnicoll.bsky.social for signing my copy of Role Model 🩵🧡

And in more #LittleRebelsAward Champion news…
