One thing people always seem to forget - which I'm glad Neill mentioned in his article in The Bookseller - is that celebrity writers are teamed up with artists, which can be a huge boost for their incomes and careers. But in general conversation, it's like they don't exist. 1/6🧵

This is the perfect time of year to read books with snowy settings, and today I'm recommending 12 of my absolute favourites. #ChildrensBooks #MiddleGrade #WinteryReads #ReadingRocks #RfP bookcraic.blog/2023/12/09/12-…

#BrewEdToon . Singing to my heart!

I'm on the look out for new authors so in case it's useful on my wish list currently is... a complicated YA romance story in an unconventional setting, a YA Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow or Americanah. I'd love to see more from Irish writers particularly Northern Irish! 1/3

So sad to hear of Benjamin Zephaniah - a true giant of humanity and humour.
