This was so lovely Trinity Belles 👏👏 a fantastic inaugural lecture by Professor Cox and a great evening!

I just tutted a sea gull for pulling rubbish out of a bin and making a mess of the footpath, as if it could possibly understand public opprobrium 🌝

Distracted by the gentle snoring of my little co-worker while he takes his third nap of the day

A couple at the table next to me are talking about kitchen renovations and what they’d do with the current marble countertop. After discussing their various options, they’ve agreed to store the marble and use it for a headstone.

Not only did I meet @rosemary_henn in person last night for the first time but look, here we are in Hodges Figgis this morning. I love a good coincidence!

So delighted for my brilliant editor and and writer Leodora Darlington who is publishing her debut!

I don’t know how she does it all, and always with such generosity and warmth. Huge congratulations, Leodora! 🥳🤗

It was so lovely to meet Jane Casey this evening at the launch of “A Stranger in the Family”. Such a great evening with a *big* audience of Jane Casey fans. I can’t wait to read! 🤗

Half term reading treats - two very different but gripping page-turners from Irish authors ⁦Sinéad Crowley⁩ and ⁦Rosemary Hennigan⁩

❛ Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms.

The writing of Rosemary Hennigan & narration of Róisín Rankin is a match made in Audible heaven

Loving #TheFavourite as much as their 1st collab on #TheTruthWillOut
