I’m devastated by the news that my client Nick Sheridan died yesterday. Nick was a brilliant author who loved writing for children, and a great friend. He lit up every room he walked into and was a joy to be around. My thoughts are with everyone who loved him.
We're taking a look back on our amazing 2023 programme, while also telling you to keep your eyes peeled for an announcement very soon 👀 #KRF2023#KRF2024
Here are some #BehindTheScenes photos from last year's festival, featuring some of the wonderful team who make our programme of free events happen every year! Presented in association with the Irish Writers Centre 📚

The Golden Hare publishes today! Here’s a sneak peek at my latest story, where Meara and her Grandad go in search of a mythical creature. If your little ones like nature, I think they’ll love this book! 🐇 Let me know if you get a copy or see the book in the wild! #picturebook
