Katherine Rundells' Radio 4 series on children's books is - of course it is - magisterial and magical.
It should have been the Reith Lectures ...

At what point did Poirot deal with a giant fly with a face?? This is like Christie on Crack.

[The Killers @thekillers]

While in the UK, we met up again with @soundwaves_art to sign a limited collection of artwork created from the audio of "Be Still". Every artwork has been hand-signed by us and Soundwaves artist Tim Wakefield to support the incredible work of @childreninconflict, a nonprofit organization protecting, educating, and providing psychosocial support to children in war zones across the world. There are only 60 signed prints and 4 originals available. https://t.co/NEfuunR80H

@nathanfiler @BoroughPress Kicked off 2024 with The Shock of the Fall. Then felt sorry for all the books in my To Be Read pile having to come after it. What a beautiful book!

[Dr Nathan Filer @nathanfiler]

I won't keep bangin' on abt this, but I am so grateful that my debut (only) novel is back on the shelves. It's too easy for books to disappear after publication, so the thought of this story finding new readers after ten long years means the world to me.

Thank you @BoroughPress.

Lucky @FrancesHardinge and I got a private tour of Hauteville, the house which Victor Hugo designed and lived in while in exile in Guernsey. Loved seeing the hidden storage places and the fold-down desks on which he wrote works such as Les Mis. House as autobiography.
