Had a wonderful #pictureflow session with @PicBookCourse at lunchtime today. Not sure I was expecting to google #babytapirs nor try and figure out how to add in some #lightandshadow and a #smallsculptor either …

If you’re writing for children or young adults and you’re ready to share your work with agents, keep me in mind. I’m very much on the lookout for a new talent to work with. Submissions guidelines are on the AMH website.

Disadvantaged children are growing up without books of their very own. Without books that they can love and cherish. And without a favourite bedtime that they want to read again and again. Become a BookTrust Friend today and help us reach more children with the magic of reading.

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay
