No one has to read your writing for you to be a writer. Writing for the joy of writing is time well-spent, no matter what happens to the project after it's finished (or even if it's finished). Spending time making art (grand art, meaningful art, silly art) is one of the best parts of being human.

'Tis the season for spooky stories! I had a great time talking about why scary stories matter with some of my fellow spooky middle grade authors on the SCBWI blog. Check it out! scbwi.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-... @spookymiddlegrade.bsky.social #kidlit #spookymiddlegrade #spookymg #SCBWI

autumn is here! time for ghosts and ghouls! and your semi-regular reminder that I have two creepy, magical little middle grade books perfect for when there's a fresh chill in the air <3

1/2 loved, Loved, LOVED the 3rd (and final?) book in the Horrible Bag trilogy: The Cursed Cloak of the Wretched Wraith by Rob Renzetti. The entire series twists your mind and book 3 is no different, except for the ending.

Really over the moon about this lovely review from PRESS 1 from @crackingthecover.bsky.social - "lighthearted and full of twists sure to appeal to a wide selection of readers" and "just plain fun"! Wow! www.crackingthecover.com/26985/j-a-da...

This is what I like to think whenever my novels get rejected. It’s a bit like my fashion sense - I’ll keep wearing what feels right for me and maybe eventually it will be on trend 😁

💙📚Book Review📚👍 Great to read a middle grade horror by a UK writer who isn’t afraid to fully express children’s fears in all their terrifying glory! Read my review of ‘Gloam’ by Jack MacKay at: www.amazon.co.uk/review/R1WES... #WritingCommunity #KidLitUK #Horror @rocktheboatnews.bsky.social

109. Conn of the Dead Dave Rudden & Ali Al Amine Irish mythology reawakens as the Abhartach comes to life. Can Conn make the right decisions? Humour, horror and a great representation of an ADHD child.

My friend and critique partner recommended THE MYSTERY OF THE HAUNTED DANCE HALL, a middle mystery set in 1960 at a summer camp. Really enjoying it so far. #middlegradebooks
