Three people standing together at an award event. They’re all holding circular glass awards and dressed in jackets. The man in the middle is smiling toward the camera, while the two on either side are angled slightly toward him. The setting seems to be indoors, possibly in a wooden-paneled library.
For the week that's in it . . .

Martin Waddell & Eilín de Paor at the Irish Book Awards. Strategically placed books emoji sticker due to (I now realise) a too-low neckline 😳.
Still thinking about #MartinWaddell & his lifetime achievement award at last night’s #APIBA #IrishBookAwards . I was not familiar with him, but should have been, having devoured his Catherine Sefton books as a child & read his picture books to my own kids. A charming person & accomplished author!
What an amazing night at the An Post Irish Book Awards!

Congrats to you all. #IrishBookAwards
A deserved winner. Clair Wills' book is a beautifully written and brave book, where she carefully and thoughtfully explores an Irish culture of shaming, secrets, and silence. Congratulations to her. #IrishBookAwards #books

The photo is of the National Convention Centre, lit in green for the An Post Irish Book Awards.
A middle aged woman with silver hair, green framed glasses and bold red lipstick stares into the camera with a half smile on her face. She is wearing a black and pink patterned dress and the backdrop behind her is green. She is also me.
The winner of the Dubray Biography of the Year is shown on stage - he is Seán Ronayne, author of Nature Boy.
The woman from the earlier picture is standing at a table. She is listening intently to an older gentleman who has a picture book open before him. He is Martin Waddell and he is about to sign Can't You Sleep, Little Bear?
What a night! Went to the An Post #IrishBookAwards chatted to John Mitchinson & Andy Miller of @backlisted.bsky.social - only my favourite podcast! saw Nature Boy win Dubray biography of the year & met the wonderful Martin Waddell, there to accept the Bob Hughes Lifetime Achievement award. 💙📚
No YA does not cover all Science Fiction, fantasy or horror books. Irish publishers aren't interested in Genre fiction and so Writers have to go else where. #irishbookawards 💙📚
