Are you an author looking to engage with bloggers and reviewers here on #booktwitter? May I offer a few tips on how to encourage us to review your book? A thread. 1/7

CALLING ALL AUTHORS.I don't know who's left out there to read this but I'm a CAMHS mental health support worker. The children's ward I support in Sussex is among the most underfunded in the country & I'd love to boost their library. If any of you could donate a copy of your book-


We are thrilled to announce the official launch of our boutique, independent publishing house, Protea Press!



Eek! Today is the day!! @protea_press goes live!! The last six months have been a crazy learning curve but our first two books go on sale today! Please follow our X page. #writingcommunity #indiepublisher #indieauthor

Thanks Caroline. I’m surprisingly okay with this. A brain my age needs a while to recalibrate - the industry is changing and I’m embracing that instead!

I'm sorry to hear this, but I understand how you feel. It seems that unless you are a celebrity or a famous name, publication is an extremely distant dream, however good your work.



I am stepping back from the querying process. Despite being longlisted for the Bridport Novel Prize, I am finding traditional publication no longer feels achievable and nor does it seem like it will be the supportive place I thought it might be. yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/09/27/the…


It's a short blog this week but I'm impressed by my video screenshot - makes a 'cracking' picture. Post @BridportPrize novel longlisting I am getting back to querying but also facing the reality of independently publishing. yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/09/11/wea…


Planner or Pantser? This week trying to plan chapter by chapter in advance stalled my writing. Returned to my organic approach and the writing is flowing again. Why do we question our own habits? I've now accepted my own approach is right for me. yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/08/23/acc…


Is there anything more fun than talking about books? I don't think so. Thank you for a fantastic conversation @ruthmariehogan I had so much fun. I didn't get to Maverick last night but maybe tonight! #amreading #amwriting #WritingCommunity yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/08/15/fin…


As a teacher I love the summer holidays when I can embrace my other job - writing! This is a little blog about how I got here. #amwriting #amquerying #amreading #writingcommunity yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/08/02/a-t…


Making Progress! Thursday 25th July 2024, 254 more words on my non-fiction essay competition entry and 329 words added to the developmental edit of Every Second … yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/07/25/mak…

The impact of phones on children's mental health has been the topic of much debate since the release of @JonHaidt Anxious Generation. The impact on children's learning is not recieving the attention it needs. Look at this data; something happened in 2012... Sound familiar?

Any teachers of writing out there? Struggling post-pandemic to motivate passive students? Apathy getting you down? Me too. As a writer, it's frustrating. Here are my thoughts on it. #writingcommunity #amwriting #amquerying yellowbrickroadwriter.wordpress.com/2024/07/20/tea…
