That’s a wrap on #YLF2024 📚 thank you so much to all the authors, poets and artists who joined us this year. Special thanks to our friends Fox Lane Books 🦊 LittleApple Bookshop St Peter's School, York SAY OWT Explore and many more! And to our audiences, you are why we do this ❤️

Lady comes into the shop asking for There's a Tiger on the Train. I said 'Ooh that's my favourite book at the moment.' She says, 'Oh that's nice, I wrote it!!' Pictures have been taken, more copies stocked. Bookshop delight!!! #bookshopmoments 💙📚🐯

I’ll be having a chat this evening at York Literature Festival 📚 in York. Apparently, I’ll be appearing in The Basement. Please come along. I think I’m being very politely kidnapped and I’d quite like witnesses.

Nothing better than curling up to write on a rainy day! We’ve extended the date for our 'Peace'-themed Creative Writing Comp York Literature Festival 📚 to Sun April 21, 6pm.

I was wondering, dear followers, can you remember the first time you encountered the idea of Dracula? 🦇
