Nationalism, in all its raggedy-arsed, hateful glory. Still making you feel proud and patriotic?

A very exciting (and decidedly chilly) week of international school visits kicks off at ST. GEORGE'S The British International School in Germany. Cologne have even got their festive lights out in honour of my arrival, which was jolly sweet of them. Early start tomorrow.

I’d planned to ration #Wyrdwood over Halloween but kept getting into a β€œone-more-chapter” situation. Now I’ve finished it early. @curtisjobling.bsky.social evokes a wonderful sense of place. I love the way the scares build up to a perfect storm of action and thrills. Immersive, thorny folk horror.

Had to record a video to do justice to #Wyrdwood's spangly copper edges. 😍 This cover by @alicecaoillo.bsky.social has to be one of my favourite children's book covers of recent times. I can't wait to get stuck in, @curtisjobling.bsky.social!
