So my last tweet was from Bologna a year ago - good times. Such a lot has happened in 2020 so far but I am lucky to work in an industry with such supportive people. If I can, I will do what I can to help. In meantime enjoy a pic of my little corner of the world.

@sunitaDESIGN @maverickbooks I get asked this often so good idea.

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

With 32,833 hits, our submissions video has been very popular over the years. So much so I feel it's time to perhaps do another. Authors and illustrators, what would you like to hear me babble on about? @maverickbooks

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

Adore this book!!! https://t.co/op5q1vPbsP

My next picture book coming out in September will be illustrated by the fabulous @Tonynealart and ironically I cannot describe how much I love what he has been creating. What's it about? Well, it's something that leaves a big footprint...

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

Happy book birthday to this wonderfully wondrous book! https://t.co/dWib5A88rY

Last day at Bologna and finally had a chance to peruse the illustrator's wall with @aimeelhayes. It's been an amazing fair!

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

At Bologna book fair for the third year (with a stand). Love being here and showing off our wonderful titles! #BCBF18 #hall25B48

@alisondonald7 Sadly not, she leads a very busy lifestyle which requires lots of eating, sleeping, (reading) and chasing tennis balls.

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

Full-time #maverickmutt Mocha is enjoying reading her proof copy of Buttercup Sunshine and the Zombies of Doom. It is a hard life being a publisher dog!

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

I am very excited to now be able to share this corker of a book - out in Sept 2018, written and illustrated by @colinmulhern. When I first read the submission I think my colleagues thought I'd lost it whilst I giggled away to myself. It's my kind of book! @maverickbooks

[Kimara Nye @KimaraNye]

@timbudgen @aimeelhayes As per previous years I'll probably see you at the airport as well!
