Thank you so much! I'm so proud to be a UV winner! It was a highlight in my long journey to publication and encouraged me to keep going, keep submitting and to now be shortlisted for the LOLLIES is a dream come true. If you have a story, if you are an eligible SCBWI member submit! Deadline 8th Sep
No one is too old for a picture book!
Thank you so much! The SCBWI BI volunteers were with me every step of the way!
This looks so cool!

We welcome today’s publication from the Department for Education of the Best Start in Life strategy, and strongly support proposals to improve provision and support for children and families, and to increase investment in early education and the early years workforce. 🧵 (1/4)
I wish I could go to this!
Submissions open today for the 10th Undiscovered Voices! If you are an unagented and unpublished SCBWI member in the UK or EU you should check it. The anthology has launched the writing careers of hundreds of writers. Can’t wait to see who we will discover! @uvcompetition.bsky.social
We're doing Terry Pratchett at my book group (my suggestion 😁) and I've just re-read 4 books and smiled a lot! Plus I've just been sent the roughs for my next PB and 😂 love them!
Have you booked your tickets yet? This is going to be so good!!!
Well this looks like fabulous fun!
Thank you!
What a lovely way to start the day 😂 @nosycrow.bsky.social @nosycrowus.bsky.social @ambercaraveo.bsky.social
Sorry about the early morning wake up but very happy to hear you started the day with Bear and Hare 😂
Long thread alert🧵
I’ve been sitting on thoughts about this, but feel a need to post after the all too predictable parent bashing comments in the underbelly of social media.
