Thank you to @FrintonLitFest for giving me such a wonderful welcome on Saturday. It was lovely seeing old friends and new and rekindling memories of past visits which have always been fun, and this was the best yet!

Thank you for a glorious 2024 festival. We had invigorating discussions at each event and were able to champion creativity in schools and support local writers and poets. More photos are coming, but for now please enjoy @FionaAnnCummins and @DorothyKoomson in conversation!

A busy week in the Writing Shed looms. I'll be editing my novella A Boy Called Saul (for the Quick Reads campaign), preparing for my interview with Dorothy Koomson at the Frinton Literary Festival on Friday night, and fleshing out a couple of ideas for Book Eight. What about you?
