Sue Lancaster 🦊 Outside the Box - out now! 🦊

Are you ready for the first #supermoon of 2025? It's officially tomorrow, but it will be just as big and bright tonight! Plus it occurs in the midst of #spaceweek too!

This fact page is taken from mine and Tincho Schmidt's picture book Supermoon.

#WorldSpaceWeek #worldspaceweek2025

Happy #NationalPoetryDay to all who celebrate!

Can you believe I now have 30 children's poems up on the Dirigible Balloon website (along with many other fab poets)?! Here they are in all their glory - have a browse if you have a moment.

Thanks to @northernjim.bsky.social for having me!

Happy #WorldVegetarianDay from the World's First Vegetarian Fox!

Outside the Box is a rhyming picture book that celebrates staying true to yourself and following your dreams (even if it is a bit scary). For Fennel that was opening a vegetarian cafe, but what will it be for you?

Fennel's just found out it was #nationalfoxday yesterday and he didn't do anything to celebrate!

Thanks for having me on your show!

So excited that the podcast I recorded with Brenna and Josh is now available. In it we chat about The Toy magazine, my two picture books Supermoon and Outside the Box, and my work-for-hire projects. Have a listen!

Very pleased to have a poem in the new issue of PaperBound Magazine!

YouTube video by Time for a Story Interview with author of 'Outside the Box' by Sue Lancaster

It's always a bit cringe watching myself back on video, but here is an interview I did with my lovely publishers about my inspiration for writing Outside the Box, plus how I got into writing and my magazine @thetoypress.bsky.social!

Had a wonderful time reading Outside the Box in the libraries of Derbyshire today with HB Publishing 🦊

A very exciting surprise this Sunday morning - my poem Hanging Out With Animals was read out by Rebecca Leek on her @suffolksound.bsky.social radio show! And following two acclaimed poets too. The poem features on @northernjim.bsky.social's Dirigible Balloon: dirigibleballoon.org/poem/Hanging...

A toast to Fennel the Fox on publication day! 🥂🦊

Thank you to Elliot for this lovely review!

It's just ONE week until Outside the Box publishes!

Me and Fennel would love it if you did 🦊

Looking forward to heading to Derby this half term!
