Glad to have a new book in time for the half term holiday break. Sadly we have been hit by a sick bug but at least I have had this and a good @libro.fm audiobook to keep me entertained while lying in bed in our holiday home

Heading home from the launch for Empathy in Politics and Leadership by Dr Claire Yorke published by @yalebooks.bsky.social. Fascinating to hear how the book evolved to be not just about leaders and empathy but about our ecosystem for politicians and leaders too yalebooks.co.uk/book/9780300...

Listening to my 6 year old read to his younger brother this morning makes me happy

Happy publication day to the fab YA graphic novel #EveythingAmplified by Sarah Lippett & Ziggy Hanaor. It has been a pleasure to work on as both of them are talented (look at those endpapers) AND nice people. You can pick up signed copies at @goshcomics.bsky.social and @portybookfest.bsky.social

Nice to catch up with lots of publicists at @publicitycircle.bsky.social drinks this evening. Although I did discover the Christmas party clashes with a book launch sadly

Heading home after a successful evening at @goshcomics.bsky.social to launch #EverythingAmplified. If you love contemporary YA graphic novels check it out and you can grab your signed copies from @goshcomics.bsky.social now. Listen to the fab accompanying playlist too (QR code in book)

Heading into London, off to @goshcomics.bsky.social to the book launch for graphic novel Everything Amplified by Sarah Lippett and Ziggy Hanaor. It is published by Cicada Books next week and I've been working on the PR campaign

My youngest has requested to do an activity inspired by a book we recently borrowed from the library #EatYoutPeople. It isn't eating people in case you were wondering!

Heading home after the launch for Dr Bot by @crblease.bsky.social this evening at @yalebooks.bsky.social yalebooks.co.uk/book/9780300.... A great turnout, wine and conversation were flowing and lots of books were signed and sold. Fab first book launch of my new(ish) job

Piece in the @dailymail.co.uk today — a generous review of my new book #DrBot. Change in medicine is inevitable, but as I argue, it must be thoughtful, ethical, and patient-centred. www.dailymail.co.uk/home/books/a... Check it out!

Debate is brewing... glad that my essay on AI in medicine is among the most read in The Guardian's Books section today: Welcome constructive feedback! www.theguardian.com/books/2025/a...

September book of the month for fiction is #EverythingAmplified on @schoolreadinglist.bsky.social

I think positive stories, hope and ideas for changes are so important at the moment so do check out this upcoming book Empathy in Politics and Leadership. Hopefully lots of people will read it and learn as it's great to work with leaders who show empathy

"this book firmly belongs in YA collections, where I am sure it will be highly in demand." Check out the full review of #EverythingAmplified from @vonprice.bsky.social. It's published later this month

"Sometimes, the stories that impact on you aren’t the big, cinematic adventures but those that are much closer to home" a great opening line in the new review of #EverythingAmplified from @jacquisydney.bsky.social

If any reviewers are keen to get a copy of #EverythingAmplified then you can sign up through Pride Book Tours now www.instagram.com/p/DNF-leYNxI...

I think this is one lots of people should be adding to their TBR, especially anyone who loves graphic novels, contemporary YA, and music related stories! #EverythingAmplified

Opening today at @thestorymuseum.bsky.social is a new gallery The Story Arcade - find out more and book tickets here www.storymuseum.org.uk/explore/the-...

@savidgereads.bsky.social I wanted to send you details of an upcoming graphic novel to see if you'd be interested in reviewing, as you've reviewed previous books by the creator. What would be the best way to send details? Thanks

Happy #IndieBookshopWeek. I am not sure I am going to get to an indie bookshop this weekend while solo parenting so I ordered some books I've been planning to get through Hive. I might order some more this weekend if I don't make it to a bookshop near my parents

Had a fantastic night catching up with so many friends and contacts for the 10th anniversary party of The Clockwork Sparrow by @katherinewoodfine.bsky.social. Cannot believe it's been 10 years since the launch and nice to hear how much the books have meant to people over that time and their impact

Loved the display of @katherinewoodfine.bsky.social books last night at @batterseabookshop.bsky.social and now have signed and stamped copies of both books

New review from @librarylady.bsky.social "The writing style is warm and chatty ... really makes you think about attitudes and stereotypes and is recommended for secondary school libraries in particular as it would be invaluable for that transition phase of children’s lives" check out the full review

New review of YOU Decide YOUR Adventure from @vonprice.bsky.social "I would highly recommend that primary and secondary school librarians add ... to their collections, and to parents/caregivers I would suggest that this could make an excellent summer holiday present for children aged 9 and above."

Huge congratulations to @thestorymuseum.bsky.social for being named the top family attraction. Any place that is built around stories is going to be special. My kids enjoyed their visits there and excited to be working on a new project with them www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/2519484...

Happy book birthday to YOU Decide YOUR Adventure by Bear Grylls, illustrated by @jakeillustration.bsky.social, a fabulous nonfiction title, perfect for KS2 readers and budding survivalists. @dkbooks.bsky.social @sallytalksbooks.bsky.social worldssmallestlibrary.wordpress.com/2025/05/29/y...
