Am actually quite moved to read the thoughts of the actors and director about Leonard and Hungry Paul.

I honestly never expected any of this. I was just typing away for my own entertainment and a book popped out.

www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/...

Leonard and Hungry Paul cast and Director on telling a story about kindness, friendship, and the quiet heroism of everyday life -

The feel-good series stars Alex Lawther, Laurie Kynaston and Jamie-Lee O’Donnell, with Julia Roberts as narrator

Mine arrived yesterday with a big bookshop order. Not my usual genre, but I’m looking forward to it

Huge thank you to every person and bookshop that's ordered Ravenglass and made it stonking success so far 😍

This gripping and powerful tale of gender-fluid Kit/Stella traversing the world in the 1700s is very relevant in today's climate!

England, 1939. A war is coming. And in the shadows, a secret resistance of witches is stirring.

Fran Moldaschl - When The Giants Passed Through @franmoldaschl.bsky.social · 1d

I'm about a third of the way through Green Laughing and am absolutely loving it so far. It's really unexpected, and the flashbacks are integrated into the prose in such a fluid way 😍

The Darkest Tide is up next and I'm super excited about that too!

Northodox Press 📖 @northodoxpress.bsky.social · 1d

We do have a couple of revjew copies going spare if you're interested. One epic fantasy and one sort of character driven, cosy-scifi 👀
