Overjoyed to see #TheStoryOfAHeart shortlisted for the @womensprize.bsky.social for non-fiction!
An honour to be in the company of these 5 fabulous books.
Max & Keira's story is a tribute to the skill of every #NHS transplant team & the astounding altruism on which every transplant depends 🫀🫁💗
Such a privilege to be longlisted, let along shortlisted alongside these 5 fabulous titles… #RaisingHare, #WhatTheWildSeaCanBe, #PrivateRevolutions, #AThousandThreads, & #TheStoryOfAHeart!
