Thrilled that Shadow Creatures has WON Historical Assoc Young Quills award in the 11-13 category. Warm thanks to the judges, team Zephyr Books and all the young readers who put the book on the shortlist.

Many thanks Hatchards Kings Cross, for the warm welcome and lovely table display for Shadow Creatures

This is so deserved. The book: Ettie and the Midnight Pool, is as wonderful and mysterious as the pool in the story. If you haven't read it, dive in! (sorry)

I am often asked on school visits (inc yesterday), if can recommend other authors. Soooo.... Clare Furniss @clarefurniss.bsky.social is a gifted, compelling speaker on writing, and her book The things we leave behind seems to be on every shortlist there is (won some too!).

Thanks Ben and Bottisham VC for a warm welcome and very full day :). Great school, great young writers!
