It's finally here - Halloween! It's time for Hector to do his thing

If you bought the book on Amazon (or even if you got it somewhere else..shhh) would you mind giving it a review? Just a simple 'I liked it' helps. Even bad ones help the ratings. Thank you so much!

More treat than trick! The message in Hector's Halloween has a warm safety net - cosiness, family time and the silly misunderstandings between dogs and their owners.

I have just had a strange conversation with someone who said my Halloween book was promoting an alternative spirituality and celebrating evil. I genuinely see Halloween as a fun, cosy family time. They were concerned about the 'witch' in this picture.

What sweeties! 😍 reading my story at St Davids St David's Hill Playgroup. It was nice to share the story with a small group and chat about the book in a relaxed way.

Hey everyone, This is my new book with the links to pre-order! I know it's super early to be thinking about Halloween when we're all enjoying the sunshine but it really does help the overall success of a book.

I had a wonderful time at @Exwick Heights Primary School yesterday sharing my stories for World Book Day. What a welcome! Someone had even done paintings of both my book covers!
