Stumped on how to title your book?

- Go to the last paragraph of your manuscript & find your favorite turn of phrase. Bingo.

- What's one word that summarizes your character's main dilemma? Add a "The" in front.

- What's the inciting incident? Add a "The" in front.

I am absolutely overwhelmed to hear that The Midnight Library has now had a full year in the U.K. top ten. Back up at number two. Thanks to everyone who has read and shared Nora’s story. I never expected anything like this to happen.

I'm kicking myself. The only reason I think it took so long is because I wasn't ready until now @JessicaBrody #writerslife #writershelpingwriters

'It's a work of extraordinary imagination'

Our fantastic co-founder director @katemosse, interviewed at our awards party this week, on why Susanna Clarke's Piranesi is such a wonderful #WomensPrize winner for our current times.

@ceciliaclyra I do. It's in my memoir, so very personal 🙈 But I feel it has a place.
