Not much compares to the joy of sending out book orders for young readers for Christmas. π

I had so much FUN at the first Books & Beyond event with #middlegrade author friend Fiona Lloyd (if there was a prize for the most chatty stall, we would have won it). π
Congrats to author friends @selinafenech.bsky.social and Vivienne Fraser for putting on this event.

One of my favourite quotes in my middle grade speculative adventure, Stu and the Sketchy Time Stops. π

The front cover of the middle grade book, STU AND THE SKETCHY TIME STOPS, written by Rebecca J. Chaney. The front cover is surrounded by fifteen aspects of the story, including plot and character, and theme, written in yellow on a purple background.
Or it's Ingrid's book, after a girl who bought a copy at my most recent event. When Stu's story becomes someone else's story.
So tell me, how do you describe your book?
