Please Don't Read The Footnotes Please by @robwaltonwriter.bsky.social and illustrated by @reenamakwana.bsky.social is a wonderfully chaotic and anarchic collection of short stories, interspersed with Rob's random (and hilarious) musings in the footnotes. Published by @theemmapress.bsky.social.

Delighted to get my mucky paws on this early copy of @robwaltonwriter.bsky.social’s first collection of short stories, ponderings and general slantwise looks at life from deep down where the footnotes dwell. Totally original and entertaining, & out in a month from @theemmapress.bsky.social #kidlituk
