We can retweet the children's laureate, right?

@FanieViljoen2 Brilliant. I hope you sent something good

It’s my worst nightmare that I’ll one day accidentally send an email to the ‘all staff’ email address at work by accident. And it’s my favourite thing when someone else does it

[Lucy Cuthew @LucyCuthew]

@GinaBlaxill Why does that email address even exist? It should be illegal

[Lucy Cuthew @LucyCuthew]

I love her so

[Lucy Cuthew @LucyCuthew]

@Louiestowell So sweet - and the more people that reply all asking to be taken off the chain the better

[Lucy Cuthew @LucyCuthew]

@happy_scribbler @TeachEnglishLit @tiafisher_ @cgmoore_author @DeanAtta @louisareid That is so interesting - I have always thought this would be cool but never managed to sustain the idea while writing

[Lucy Cuthew @LucyCuthew]

@TeachEnglishLit @tiafisher_ @cgmoore_author @DeanAtta @louisareid (Not that there is one way of understanding any of these books/poems)

[Lucy Cuthew @LucyCuthew]

@TeachEnglishLit @tiafisher_ @cgmoore_author @DeanAtta @louisareid This is all really interesting. Have enjoyed reading other answers. I wouldn’t mind kids studying poems out of context, I don’t think. I like the idea of them being misunderstood and then re-understood later with context. Could be quite an interesting learning experience.

It's my birthday 🎂
If you'd like to wish me a happy birthday, please retweet my shameless promotion of my debut YA novel. If you know anyone who would enjoy a feminist superhero rom-com, you could even tag them? Thanks for making my day special 💖 ⚡

Hi all, I'm at Bath Spa uni doing an MA in Writing for Young People and I'm researching 'To rhyme or not to rhyme in picture books?' I'm a rhyming PB author myself but if any #authors #agents #publishers or #booksellers have any thoughts on this I'd be really grateful. Thank you!

This is the loveliest! The Best Way to #BuryYourHusband is the #1 gifted book for Amazon in Family & Lifestyle: Domestic Violence. I love the thought of the book being gifted by so many people as the heart of the story is solidarity between women in the face of DV. @VikingBooksUK
