Waiting to hear from an early reader about your manuscript is like sending your child to school for the first time. You're trying to get on with your life but you spend the whole day wondering if you should have given the teacher more context.

This is the story of two authors who chase local cafes to stay open on a Friday afternoon so we can talk, and talk, and talk. So lovely to spend time with @cbalintauthor this afternoon. The two of us are just happy to raise our coffee cups to each other!

Forgot to buy treats so any lost children appearing at our door will be given an individually wrapped chocolate croissant. Because that is how I ensure my teens eat breakfast these days.#Halloween #Halloween2022
