Can't wait for our event in Nottingham!!

Ooh look at this beauty! Really looking forward to reading #ThenThingsWentDark by Bea Fitzgerald! Thank you to Bea and Penguin Michael Joseph for the proof.

There are not enough words to describe how much I LOVED this book! And I am so thrilled to be bringing you THEN THINGS WENT DARK this year - be prepared to be hooked! 🔪🏖️❤️‍🔥

No murder has ever had any more witnesses…

I'm so excited to help reveal the cover of Bea Fitzgerald's debut adult novel, 'Then Things Went Dark'.

It follows six people on a desert island ready to make their reality show debut, until one of them gets murdered!

✨ THEN THINGS WENT DARK UK COVER REVEAL!!✨

Six contestants. A $250,000 prize. Twelve million witnesses.
How do you kill someone on live TV and get away with it?

Pre-order signed copies from Waterstones! waterstones.com/book/then-thin…

IT'S GOING TO BE ICONIC!! (literally, um, the reality show is called Iconic . . .)

I know whatever I say will be screenshotted and reshared either way so fuck it: trans friends and strangers, parents and family of trans kids who must be all feeling quite terrified today — I love you, I’m glad you’re here, and I hope you can find some joy and air today.

Me: no one will ever know that I had not slept in 37 hours

So delighted that Girl, Goddess, Queen is a finalist in the Fantasy Romance category - and in some very excellent company!! 🎉🎉

It's 2024. Why are newly announced children's books adding disability to characters as proof they are 'disgusting'? As children's authors, it's our duty to write for *all* children, including children with eye prostheses or blind children.

some of my favourite people from last night.

Disability is not disgusting. It is not evil. It is not wrong. It is varied, it is neutral, it is complex, it is everywhere.

so proud of the kids who came last night, so honoured to have the readers I have.

Love you all.

thank you for last night

Had a gorgeous time last night chairing Bea Fitzgerald & Rosie Hewlett at Waterstones Piccadilly, London - my first chairing there and Rosie’s first panel! The event was sold out and there was so much love for them both in the room — thank you all for coming!!

Brilliant sold-out event at Waterstones Piccadilly, London last night, discussing all things Greek mythology (and why Jason and Zeus are the absolute worst) - with Rosie Hewlett, Bea Fitzgerald and hux | lizzie huxley-jones 🍟📚 📚

Make You Mine This Christmas and its upcoming sequel both feature disabled love interests. I will always write disabled people into my romcoms as protagonists and love interests because we deserve it and frankly because some small people still think that’s taboo.
