The wonderful team @CiceroneJournal published my short story in their Speculative Fiction Showcase - https://t.co/cUzSO2EssZ - it's free to read, and the whole issue is spectacular.

Me on ABC radio this morning yammering on about the eternal question of what does YA mean anyway, amongst other things, with particular reference to THE SINISTER BOOKSELLERS OF BATH. For the avoidance of doubt, it is for adults, some of whom will be young.

@TeslaManUtd @JonathanAStroud @netflix I'm so disappointed! The show was brilliant, they're making a mistake.

@elementeds Addie La Rue was amazing, I just loved it. I have a soft spot for Terry Pratchett's witches too. Enjoy 🙂

Nearly nine in 10 children brought from offshore processing on Nauru to Australia were suffering physical health conditions, including malnutrition and dental disease, while almost 80% reported one or more mental health symptoms, new research has revealed.

@AlanBaxter I just finished The Fall, it was fantastic! I love Gulpepper in a chills by bones kind of way. Feels like it could be my home town if my home town was infested by uncanny horrors. More infested, I mean.

@KieraLesley @ASIMtweets @aurealisawards Congratulations! Two nominations, too 😁 It was such a great story. Good luck!
