Thank you so much to @JerseyWordFest, it was all magnificent ❤️ Highlights included interviewing @MichaelRosenYes, hanging out with @JackieKayPoet and writing and swimming at the beautiful lido ✍️🏊♀️💙
I love this!
@JackieKayPoet has been visiting Linlithgow Academy to officially open a 'book vending machine'. It's part of @penguinrandom's 'Lit in Colour' programme to encourage young people to read more books by non-white authors.

@HolSmale So completely and utterly deserved, Holly. The show was wonderful. Just finished watching and have one of those happy/sad lumps in my throat. Loved your cameo too 😍
Proud to add Chris Riddell to the list of Laureates (Laureati, as I like to call them) that have been part of #jerseywordfest over the years.
Double whammy of Children's Laureates for JFOW24 with @MichaelRosenYes@chrisriddell50 and our first Scottish Makar @JackieKayPoet
I feel quite emotional, Holly, seeing Harriet on the screen, so I can't begin to imagine how you must feel! Huge congratulations - I've no doubt this is going to be a smash hit. x
Coming to Netflix 30 May co-created by the awesome @holsmale starring Emily Carey as awkward teen Harriet Manners, supported by a stunning cast & production team, and featuring "wound up agents" - dunno what that's about 😆. It is BRILLIANT AND FUNNY AND FEEL GOOD so watch it!
Lucky enough to have been sent a proof copy of @DavidNWriter new novel. I've just finished this tender, funny, wonderful story and know this will be one of those book hangovers which is going to take quite some time to recover from...
As a book-lover I approach adaptations with trepidation, but #OneDayNetflix is completely wonderful and utterly faithful to the novel. Probably the best adaptation since the stunning Patrick Melrose series. Funny that. Magic ingredient = @DavidNWriter
