An absolute ‘pinch-me’ moment. Can’t believe I’m on the cover of ⁦@thebookseller⁩ , a magazine I’ve been reading for over twenty years.

All set and ready to rock at ⁦@gutterbookshop⁩ with ⁦@bobjohnstonbks⁩ to launch The Celestial Realm by ⁦@Molly_Hennigan⁩ at half past six, pop in! ⁦@eriu_books⁩ ⁦@GillHessLtd⁩

For anyone who missed this yesterday, shockingly, an Irish children's book has not appeared in the Irish charts for over 20 weeks. Check out https://t.co/EFvMIJT0pV to find out how you can help & see some fab alternate titles #discoveririshkidsbooks

To say I'm ecstatic would be an understatement. I am now represented by the fabulous Polly Nolan @PNPaperCuts. I'm delighted Polly enjoyed my female-led psychological thriller and can't wait for what comes next...
