Just accidentally sang 'Wuthering the high street'

COVER REVEAL & LIMITED TIME OFFER!!!📚 Hello everyone! Please behold my GORGEOUS cover for my new book OUTSIDE - out 6th August. How cool is it though?! It’s by far the favourite cover of all my books. I love it so much 😍 (and it’s the favourite of all my books) but ALSO…

I’ve managed to add an extra step to the not being able to sleep on a Sunday because of Monday dread, to not being able to sleep on Saturday because the next day is Sunday, the day of the Monday dread

Last year I read Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are? by Frans de Waal and am now disconcerted that each article about common animals I've read since is "uh, probably smarter than we think."

I have to say that since getting a robot hoover that I’m a lot less worried about them taking over the world

It’s been a while! I’ve been busy working on my next book, OUTSIDE, for three whole years! It’s a real passion project and is quite different to my other books. Im afraid you’ll be hearing from me a lot more now! Cover to follow soon! 😃🥰

Do I have children? No. Was I still forced awake at 5am on Christmas morning? Yes. Yes I was.

Morrisons weren’t lying about their salad being crunchy

Just think of the marketing spend which can now be distributed among all the other celebrity children’s authors

I have sent off my edits. Partly done with a broken shoulder! So please do buy it out of pity when it's out 😂

I've written a big piece for the Observer about the Big C. Would be lovely if you find time to read it sometime and feel free to share. observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

So I fractured my shoulder on Monday and have subsequently had the worst few days as I live alone and have 3 cats that still need feeding and medicating and it’s been agony and hard 😩 don’t recommend

I’m currently at this stage in the editing process

Hi everyone! I am really proud to have taken part in this Radio 4 programme about agoraphobia. So if you want something in the background while you're making your dinner, please do tune in! 🙏 p.s. I've no idea what made the edits so I'm a little scared! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

I genuinely had about three sips of 7UP for the entirity of my childhood

Me trying to give my cats their flea treatment

Happy Hide In Your Bedroom with The Lights Off Day!

I know lots of authors find it annoying to have their edits to do with tight deadlines during Christmas or the summer holidays but I’ve got to do them during Traitor season!

Tbf as a vegan I do believe tofu tampons are the best available because they’re great at soaking up but I do think the non-vegan mozzarella sticks can work just as well. Don’t recommend frankfurters though

I'm going to start with some high quality content and ask - have jams always had such short use by dates? Now it's like three weeks to use up a big pot of jam! What?!

I’ve not really got into the swing of Bluesky and miss Twitter. But if I start posting on here will you all leave me hanging and make me look a fool?!

These are the things that make me proud to be British 🫡

Guys!!! I’ve been sitting in this news for a while now, but so excited to finally be able to share!!! 🥳😃 (It’s on BookBrunch which is behind a paywall hence the photos!)

Here's more aobut The Author Clinic in the Bookseller!📖 #writer #aspirtingwriters #amwriting #writingcommunity #theauthorclinic www.thebookseller.com/news/five-no...

🚨Calling all writers !🚨 Writing is hard and lonely and scary! And though there are lots of great editorial services something that’s missing is the ability just to chat things through with someone. Plotting issues, publishing advice, how to start writing a book 1/2

IF I CAN’T HAVE YOU is today’s daily Audible deal so if you fancy a bargain get it within the next few hours. It’s currently at No 3 in the overall charts. I have no idea who these other two are mind 😂 but it would be amazing to jump ahead of them!

From reading comments online some ppl don't quite understand authors' concern about the Meta AI issue. So imagine you get to work today and there's a robot. You're forced to teach it how to do your job, but you won't get paid. Then imagine someone asks why this is concerning

I was one of authors who had their books, essentially stolen to train AI. This is shit on many levels and depressing as hell for the future of creatives 😡😭 BUT I have foolishly written a new book! And hopefully news to follow soon 🙏

Happiest of publication days to @franquinn.bsky.social and the brilliant The Lost Passenger 🎉🎉🍾🛳️

Walter’s techniques of waking me in the mornings are getting more extreme

Considering the fact that I just cried as my car was taken away for scrap because I felt like I was killing it, I really don't think I'm going to do well when the robots come

Happy Valentine’s Day! Though if like me you’re feeling about as romantic as a wet rag then IF I CAN’T HAVE YOU is the perfect anti-romance and currently only 99p on kindle

🇺🇸US readers! For two days you can get 25% off preorders of #ABeautifulWayToDie including ebook and audio. Ends Friday! tinyurl.com/mvxyfxz5 @headofzeus.bsky.social

Thank you so much to anyone who loaned I can’t Have You and If I Let You Go from the library 🙏 both books in all formats combined were loaned out a staggering (to me anyway!) 9721 times! We love libraries 📚📚📚

Proud of Walter sticking to his New Year’s resolution of 50 sits up every day

Here is Gisèle Pelicot's full statement outside the court. I share it in honour of her immense courage. ~AA

I can’t have a Christmas tree because I also have a Walter

A really weird thing happened today. This morning and good friend and I were having a back and forth about #MAFS aka Married at First Sight. Then literally a few hours later she randomly goes to a garden centre in Leigh and sends me this *THAT IS THE VERY ORSON

IF I CAN’T HAVE YOU is currently 99p on Kindle for their Black Friday deals. It’s a crappy day today so a perfect reading day!

My cat, Walter has to see a behaviourist because he eats everything. I can now add snow to the list 🤦‍♀️

I tried to post a video of it snowing outside my house but it said it can’t find ‘blob’?!! What is this please?

I’ve had a strong start on here

I feel like I should recreate my first days of Twitter by posting a joke then immediately deleting it
