Thanks to Steph of the awesome #DormouseBooks for gifting me #Ironopolis by #GlenJamesBrown. This striking novel weaves together a council estate's intergenerational stories and tangles them all up with my favourite river-hag, Peg Powler. It's folkloric and real and very entertaining.

Thanks to #BelperSchool for letting me trial my new #THIRST presentation on 200 Year 8 guinea pigs. Was big fun and I'm chuffed to see my talk's up to the job. Thanks also to #DormouseBooks for making this happen and for goodies galore.
Next stop: #NoLimits with #TheRabbitHole!

Following yesterday's #DormouseBooks post, here's the reveal of what lurks down the steps beyond that creepy creaky door. Mwah ha haaaa...
(Also, seriously, visit this brilliant bookshop.📚❤️)

Visited #DormouseBooks while filming some promotional #THIRST bobbins in Belper. Watch this video to witness the gorgeousness of this unique and brilliantly curated indie bookshop. 📚 (And check out tomorrow's video to find out what lurks behind that cellar door...💀)

2/2 Bought a batch of 129 books from #DormouseBooks, a small local bookseller... & loads of vinyl from #BPMRecords in Derby. Feels like it enhances reading & listening to have supported independent suppliers!
