Dear Sue @suecheungstory , thank you so much for my beautifully dedicated copy of Maddy Yip's Guide to Parties! 💗 Relatable, original, filled with brilliant characters and very very funny. Plus loads of tips for outrageous party planning! 😊

Thanks Leeds-I had 56 class log-ins so that’s about 1700 people!

My workshops are fast-paced draw-alongs to get creative juices flowing. Get in touch if your school is interested in a KS2 session.

I’m getting extra mince pies thanks to @PLR_UK libraries & readers!🥳

If you’re a writer, you can get dosh every time your book is borrowed so it’s worth applying for Public Lending Rights!
