This was such a delightful story!
My debut novel turns one year old today! I can’t believe this monster has been out in the world for so long, and met so many readers.
I worked my whole life for this. Thank you all for making it magical.

This was such a delightful story!
I remember learning the alphabet and making words using the lids from Smarties tubes, which each had a letter on. My mum would collect them from friends and neighbours and we would sit and make these colourful word caterpillars. Anyone else? #smarties

I love it when a story completely removes you from the real world and throws you to the lions as you experience every haunting word that binds to your soul and won't let go.
So ... no pressure next book on my TBR pile.
Just do your best.

A customer refused to buy the copy of the book they wanted from our shelves because they “don’t buy display copies.” Not sure they know how bookshops work. 🤷♂️
