New interview with me over on the Substack. Thank you @paulburston.bsky.social for the questions. substack.com/@paulburston...

After a slow start (publisher in Italy, luggage not), a brilliant first day at Bologna Book Fair – brilliant bookish conversations and pasta, Prosecco and a palazzo 🍝🍾 And this morning the Renard stand is finally complete! 📚 🙌

The book was published in February 2026 by @renardpress.com haywoodbooks.com/the-midwifes...

I hope you’ll be there! I’m so glad that the multiple award-winning indie @renardpress.com understood my mission with these teaching books and has taken on publication of three more after The Elixir. The best thing for me was to create my own ecosystem for my nonfiction work and a stable platform 💙📚

Looking forward to tomorrow's Indie Press Fair... 🧡 @indiepressnetwork.bsky.social @indienovella.bsky.social @renardpress.com @londonreviewbookshop.co.uk @waterstones.bsky.social @dauntbooks.bsky.social @theguardian.com @telegraph.co.uk @newstatesman1913.bsky.social @thespectator1828.bsky.social
