We are really proud to have been shortlisted for the Children’s Publisher of the Year Award, and our exceptional Rights Director, Erin Murgatroyd, has been shortlisted for the Rights Professional of the Year Award at the British Book Awards 2025! ✨ 👉 ow.ly/NHQF50Vi0y6

Book 2: Maisie vs the Himalayas is now on the Waterstones website and part of their 25% off offer! 💚🏔️ www.waterstones.com/book/maisie-...

Half an hour after the engineer got to my house, BT sent me a text to tell me the engineer is in my house and did I want to tell him how to get here? 😂

A 2nd copy of Maisie has arrived in Antarctica, this time thanks to the brilliant film director Natalie Hewit whose film ‘Endurance’ is now on Disney.

Look at these fantastic penguins! 🐧🐧🐧🩵🩵🩵

Bookzilla Book of the Month! Last week to enter @scottishbooktrust.bsky.social ‘s competition to win a copy!

I was shocked on Saturday to get this email about my WIP: “2 comments from Renata”. Renata is one of the characters in the WIP. 😳 My characters don’t usually comment on their own story. #amwriting

So many Maths teachers are going to write the year as 45² next term.

An early Xmas present to me! 🎄Maisie is on Waterstones’ list of Best New Paperbacks for 9-12 Year Olds! 🩵🩵 I never dreamed my name would be alongside the likes of Aisling Fowler and Eoin Colfer!

Just browsing and found all these fab Maisie activities on parrotstreet.com ! 🩵 2024 just keeps getting better! (Strictly thinking about book stuff, at least). #writers

🩵 Thank you @sparkbookaward.bsky.social for including Maisie - and in such great company!

Thank you for the boost @seasidereader.bsky.social !

Thank you so much to The Week Junior. I’ve been reading TWJ for years - I used to make up a quiz on it every week for my class - so it’s a great honour to be on the inside! 🐧🩵🇦🇶 #mgwriters

So thrilled to be shortlisted! 🩵🇦🇶🥶

Close on the shelf, but set poles apart; Maisie vs Antarctica and Terra Electrica nestling nicely at @stanfordstravel.bsky.social today! 🗺️🥶 Thanks @antoniamaxwell.bsky.social for the pic! #mgwriters

On the subject of that new group who want to use AI to 'disrupt' publishing. There are already great publishers 'disrupting' the industry. 1) The presses who seek out new voices and support midlist ones, instead of blowing the marketing budget on celebs.

So emotional to see Maisie back in Antarctica! Thank you Stephi for taking her and for taking this amazing photo! 🐧🩵🇦🇶

My map of children's independent bookshops is updated regularly. Most provide an online service and they're all run by people who can make well-informed book recommendations. Make sure you support your local one if you want to keep it. Any missing, please let me know. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

This is a great read (and not just because I’m in it but also partly because I’m in it 😉). 🩵

This weekend’s one-hour project (because that’s literally all the spare time I’ve got): emperor penguins! #woodwork

I’ve finally found a reliable mood ring.

One of my all time favorites 💜
