@frankcottrell_b My son can’t wait to get this with his world book day voucher! His year 5 class are reading Cosmic together at the moment, which he loves as he has your signed copy at home and gets to re-read with his friends. Looking forward to reading Blockbusters! 🎞️🪶🦑

It's today!!!!! My love letter to movie-making, to teachers, to Shakespeare and gigantic soft bodied molluscs

Tolkien’s illustrations were so diverse and imaginative. Here are 40 of his stunning pieces (link below).

@Biggreenbooks Merry Christmas to you and your family, Simon!

Hey Twitter followers. I've not really enjoyed doing Twitter this year. But I just wanted to say thanks for your support. I know i'm a bit rubbish, but I do my very best. Have a wonderful Christmas.

@Sally_writes Love this idea Sally! 🎄

Two weeks ago, I saw a teacher ask for short Xmas stories Two weeks later, I’ve written 3k words of one (instead of everything I’m supposed to be doing, oops) And now my brain is apparently considering creating an anthology with Xmas short stories from other authors too 🫣

Ready for another #TheTorturedWriersPodcast with the super talented writer @LauraPAuthor about writing and breast cancer and her new book. Plus Laura will be telling us why changing agents for various reasons isn’t necessarily a bad thing! .

The bird even realized he had won 😅🥳

Finally watched Frankenstein last night. It did not disappoint ⚡️

This is worth a watch - worth two watches. Two-thirds of UK over-7s now watching platform delivered videos driven by engagement algorithms to promote sedation over nourishing, crafted entertainment. Making millions from children without reinvesting for children. ⬇️

This is true. It’s also true that my dog at this pup’s age used to jump at me, grab my ponytail in her jaws, and fell me like a tree 😂
