My brain is fizzing this morning after a sensational meeting at Polka yesterday about the WLTGO show. I am loving every second of this project and it’s very special to be spending time with Elliot & co again. We open in Feb, but tickets are on sale now - it’s going to be epic xxx

THE LAST BARD is ridiculously clever, downright hilarious and every bit as kind as its creator ✨ @mazevansauthor is a master of storytelling, I laughed on every page, and she’s made Shakespeare super accessible for younger readers. Genius!

School’s nearly out for summer… and so too will the paperback for THAT’LL TEACH HER, which hits the shelves on 31 July. When a reviled teacher is murdered, the crime must be solved… by the Year 6 parents’ WhatsApp group… Martina Cole liked it… I hope you will too xxx

It’s happening… 10 songs recorded for The Who Let The Gods Out musical at Polka Theatre this week. And as this picture demonstrates, Luke Bateman and I are really rather happy with them… We open in Feb, tickets on sale now… xxx

I will never, ever again take it for granted that I can open a window and it be colder outside than in. Thank you Mother Nature for this humility.

Now I’m nothing if not a cheap laugh, but especially so for the month of June, when THAT’LL TEACH HER is just 99 pennies on The Kindle! This is my comedy murder mystery set in a primary school and investigated by parents’ WhatsApp group… Educators, this one’s for you… xxx
