My first adult novel, Unapologetic Love Story, will be published tomorrow and launched at Waterstones Piccadilly. The Scottish launch was extraordinary. I'm so grateful to all who joined us.

I'm very nervous for what tomorrow may bring but last night was special. And I'll never forget it.

Cover of We Are Dragon by Karítas Gunnarsdóttir - a bright green background with a black dragon rearing up.

When I first read I Am Wolf by @alastairc.com, I started it with some trepidation because I wasn’t sure it could live up to his other sci-fi books. How wrong I was! I’m sad to have to say goodbye to all the brilliant characters but We Are Dragon is a beautiful end to the trilogy. #KidLitUK #UKKidLit

Thanks, Helen, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
