Happy Howloween 🎃 Howl has ONE Halloween costume Happy Howloween 🎃 

Howl has ONE Halloween costume, gifted to him by @annemillerbooks at the tender age of six months, and every year I try to get him to wear it. This year was perhaps its most successful outing yet. We got to 5 minutes wearing it and he even let me put on the little hat for 30 seconds. Then I took it off again because it was clearly causing him psychic damage. He got a lot of treats in exchange and now the costume has been retired to the loft until next year.
So beyond delighted to celebrate @catherinerebecca So beyond delighted to celebrate @catherinerebeccajohnson as this year’s Malorie Blackman Impact Award winner at @thediversebookawards this evening. It was the hugest honour to be shortlisted alongside her and @josephcoelhoauthor, two authors I have so much respect and admiration for. I’m being genuine when I say that the shortlisting was all I needed. Congratulations Catherine ❤️

My fellow Americans, get out there and make sure your voice is heard 🩵
Big milestone in the MMUniverse today: we have off Big milestone in the MMUniverse today: we have officially hit THREE MILLION COPIES SOLD in the UK and Ireland ALONE. No, this is not the worldwide number - this is just the total from those two countries. If you have bought one (or many!) of my books over the last 12 years, I am so grateful - what an incredible total, and it just keeps growing. 

Swipe for the gorgeous flowers @natalieldoh sent to commemorate the occasion, beautifully photographed by the young detective (who was so awestruck that a 40-picture photoshoot was needed).
What an honour to be at Winnie the Pooh’s 100th bi What an honour to be at Winnie the Pooh’s 100th birthday party, celebrating all the good @royalliteraryfund have done with AA Milne’s bequest. A very special night for a very special bear (and the cake was delicious).
I feel like we don’t talk enough about how wrong g I feel like we don’t talk enough about how wrong gen AI usually is. We need to talk more about how grossly, embarrassingly wrong gen AI programmes often get things! I am so tired of being told to adopt AI when AI is this bad at the job we are burning the world down so it can do.
Some nice event news: I’m really pleased to be app Some nice event news: I’m really pleased to be appearing at the final stop of the Mystery Of …’s autumn tour, at @cambridgejunction theatre on the 8th of November at 2:30pm, for a special Q&A with @danyahmillerthestoryteller. The Mystery Of … is an interactive mystery solving show for families 6+, and I consulted on an early version of it - I’m so excited to be seeing it again, and really thrilled to be able to talk to the audience about it afterwards!

Please note that to see the Q&A you just book tickets to the 2:30pm show (link in my bio). There won’t be books for sale at the event, but I’ll be happy to sign anything you might have brought from home. 

And if you’re not in Cambridge … may I suggest you go to one of the other stops on the tour anyway? It’s the perfect half term activity!
