I had the absolute pleasure of being on @readingcafepod and I have to say check out my episode but not to listen to me, listen to the incredible hosts Isla and Ethan! Their thoughtful, insightful questions genuinely made me consider my own book in ways I hadn't really thought of before. This is the beauty of dialogue and getting to engage with readers. Authors may intend something with our art but how it lands with readers is entirely unique and subjective. The whole interview was amazing but getting to talk a bit more about grief and how it impacts Layla in the book was really special, so thank you again to the wonderful hosts for inviting me on to speak about The Silver Kingdom! Available to listen on all streaming platforms 🎧 #podcasts #thesilverkingdom #romantasy #youngadultbooks #fantasybooks

A massive thank you to my old English teacher Mr Kelly for having me back today to shoot these young stars reviewing recent reads as part of their thriving podcast. Incredible work being done here and fills me with hope seeing so many talented and thoughtful young people coming through 📚📽️

Happy World Book Day! What a privilege it is to be able to read. However not all children’s journey is the same and we have to remember the barriers they face and meet them with patience for what they can do. Imagine a world that meets them at the level they are at and celebrates with them❤️📚 A fantastic quote from @anywherebookclub that we agree with! #sen #children #learning #books #reading #goallin2026 #achievingsuccesstogether
