Beside myself with excitement for the new book by @lucynichol.bsky.social , ‘Girls To The Front’, a found footage feminist revenge thriller soundtracked by Riot Grrrl bands. Loving the cover - designed by Chris Bigg of 4AD fame. Book sourced by Yorkshire’s finest bookshop, @jebookshull.bsky.social

My kids haven't read my books but watched the Leonard & Hungry Paul TV series with us last night. I was touched by their interest & support. I told them that when they're older it might seem childish to them to devote time to writing songs, drawing pictures, making stories, but to remember all this.
