Delighted to say that Iām off to The One Voice Awards tomorrow night after being nominated for best fiction Audiobook performance of the year for the second time running, this time for the always excellent @jennycolganbooks #thesecretchristmaslibrary Huuuge thanks to Jenny for trusting me with her words. To be immersed in her worlds is always a thing of joy.
This does feel like an acknowledgement of many years of joyful toil. From the moment I narrated my first book 20 years ago, fairly fresh out of drama school (on tape!) or maybe even from when I won my first cup for storytelling as a shy 13 years ago old, this crazy pursuit has felt right. So hooray for an evening of dancing and celebrating lovely industry peeps. Canāt wait! Hopefully see you there?
Thank you so much @hodderstoughton and @ulverscroftltd and of course @gravyforthebrain for the nomination! #LoveAudiobooks #HumanVoicesOnly #onevoiceawards
This Mental Health Awareness Week UK's theme is Action.
Just six minutes of reading can reduce stress by up to 68% (University of Sussex). But that only works if the format works for the reader.
Large print, audiobooks and accessible formats are how more people get to take action for their own wellbeing. š

The @tinder_press marketing team loved meeting @danewhyteohara in Dublin while he was recording the audiobook of Land.
It was fascinating hearing Dane talk about the book, especially from the perspective of being an Irish man, and to see the magic that happens behind the scenes in the audio booth!
Dane's recording will be available in the UK, US & Canada with @prhaudio , @penguinrandomca and @ulverscroftltd .

It's wonderful to see the Ulverscroft Foundation's support making a real difference for young people with sight loss in Shropshire.
@sightlossshropshire 's youth programme is off to a brilliant start, bringing young people together, building confidence, and community in the process.
This is exactly why the Foundation exists, and why the work we do in accessible publishing matters beyond the page.
This Earth Day, we're proud to support libraries in offering formats that serve more readers, more sustainably.
Every book borrowed from a library is a book that doesn't need to be printed, packaged, and shipped to a single reader.
One title. Many borrows š
