Some eight years after publication and I finally got my wonderful friend and author @lucymayrowland to sign this very special book we made together, with the fine design skills of @lydiacoventry . This will forever be one of the most important books I had the privilege of publishing. I just need @benmantle_illustration to ink his name on it now, if we ever see each other again!

What a night. What a set. What a venue. Front row with steadfast friends we met less than three years ago, where you meet the best people, on the front row watching Blur at Wembley. @britpopclassical transported me straight back to my teens, to a decade of hope, ambition and bloody brilliant music. Fab work @alexjameshq

I took my husband to meet a legend for his birthday treat. Happy Birthday / Marmalade Day @joecarswellmc

Another fun (and exhausting) Halloween, except this year @joecarswellmc pulled off his biggest acting role to date. All is revealed at the end . . .

It’s not every day that you have the privilege of meeting the person who is literally the musical fabric of your marriage, the maker of the song that @joecarswellmc made a video to propose to me with and the song that became our wedding dance — Neil Hannon @divinecomedyhq , thank you for being our music. What a truly lovely person you are. So, eleven years on, here we are, still dancing. And to our choreographer-turned-friend, @kdoody1980 , as ever, this is for you (sorry about the mistakes — the ground was very bumpy!)

It’s only taken me eight years to get rock star author Kes Gray to sign this brilliant book we made together with awesomely talented @nikki_dyson (who also needs to autograph it) and @zoidy78 at Macmillan Children’s Books. This picture book remains a very proud moment in my publishing career. And it never stops making me laugh.
