It’s nice having travelling friends who snap pictures of my book in the wild. My buddy Bec spotted it in Eason bookstore in Killarney, Ireland. ☘️ Shout out to any readers there 👋 The “book thing” feels a world and a lifetime away down here in Australia.
Last night I hit send. My new kidlit project, all wide-eyed and gussied up, is sitting in my agent’s inbox. It’s morning now, and I know it’s ridiculous to hope for a reply this soon, but it’s so damn nerve-racking waiting & wondering if I’ll get to do another book. Send 🍩 or encouragement, pls.
Thrilled to have been a part of the Historical Novel Society Australasia Conference on the weekend in Sydney. I spoke on a panel about making history engaging for young readers with Susanne Gervay, Suzanne Leal & Amelia Mellor, winner of the HNSA ARA prize (CYA) #HNSAConference2023
Oh wow! Beautiful, well done! #gardenenvy 🤩
🤩 the colours!
I’ll see what’s required here in Australia. We don’t get a frost, so maybe I can leave them. 🤔
Dahlias are so lovely. I must plant some in my garden. Do yours come back in spring?
I’d like a pair with stegosaurus plates 🙂.
