I nearly sent that ‘bunnies on a trampoline’ clip to someone but then I got a whiff of AI and after watching it another ten times I spotted the tells. It is AI. The spin offs too. But it all slips through doesn’t it, filters into our general gloop like a poison.
Such a great story teller. I also loved Rebel. 😍
NOPE
An image of the front cover of A Wizard of Earth sea, graphic novel. The cover depicts a shadowy form rising from a stormy sea. In certain lights, you can see the form of a dragon where the shadow is,
Just finished this. Lovely to go back to Earthsea.

I’ve read, & loved, most of her books but never this one. I shall rectify that soon!
I’m reading the remaining books on @carnegiemedals.bsky.social longlist. Loved @franceshardinge.bsky.social Island of Whispers with stunning artwork from Emily Gravett. Review linked: www.instagram.com/p/DGgW4zrOcF...

BOOK GIVEAWAY!!! I'm not on social media a lot right now, working very hard on my new book, trying to get it done in less than 9 years this time! In the meantime, I'm giving away signed copies of all my books so far. Repost & follow to enter, & say which one you'd like - closes Dec 14! #KidLitUK
Eeek!
Just finished this curious little novella by Susanna Clarke. I think I sometimes live in the same city as Merowdis. ‘The King’s capital of Newcastle. But not that Newcastle. The other one.’ Stunning illustrations. #amreading
I’ve just posted a review for Twilight Robbery, part two of @franceshardinge.bsky.social ’s series following the adventures of the brilliant Mosca Mye. 🌒🌗
www.waterstones.com/books/review...
Three books published by Nosy Crow. Murder at Wintertide, Murder in Midwinter and Murder at Snowfall. They aren't a series. Different protagonists in each one.
I'm going to try a Bluesky giveaway.
Don't know how it's going to go - but I'm giving all three of these books to a school or a family. Cozy crime for 9 - 13 year olds.
One winner, UK only.
To enter tell me something about Christmas that makes you happy.

This has been a crazy Autumn 2 so far… like beyond anything I’ve ever experienced in 17 years of teaching!
But the here were some lush moments this week:
-virtual visit with Lesley Parr
-book group party to finish our first read, Secrets of the Snakestone
