My first book #TheHatmakers is published in the UK today!
I am so profoundly grateful to everyone who helped bring this book into the world: my amazing agent @cmlwilson, my brilliant editor @natalieldoh, everyone in the fantastic team at @puffinbooksuk, @paoesco8ar for creating a truly magical cover and illustrations, you are all wonderful and have literally made my dream come true. ❤️
Thank you to my friends and family who have supported me (and my wearing of silly hats) all along. ❤️ And especially to @barnaby_douglas who told me to write down the dream in the first place and believed in it from the first day ❤️
I made this very silly Triumph Bicorn to celebrate 🥳
Help me celebrate becoming an actual published author by tagging me in pics of you wearing your favourite hat ✨🎩✨
❤️🥰😘
It’s Friday. I’m in love.

I still haven’t really processed that The Hatmakers is out there in the world now! And I definitely haven’t quite snapped back to reality (what even IS reality any more?!) Here are some pics from publication week, featuring a magical hat-cake and Hat-biscuits made by my mum, a small mountain of books at @goldsborobooks and a delightfully fun evening with @thegavgav ✨🎩✨
Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who made The Hatmakers book birthday so special: thank you for your beautiful messages and videos of love and support (Sorry if I haven’t got back to you yet! I am floating on a bit of a cloud at the moment and the phone signal on this cloud is sporadic – also I’m perennially disorganized… finally being a published author definitely hasn’t changed me 😂)
Thank you especially to everyone who has read the book and sent such lovely messages (and written such kind and generous reviews). I am so immensely grateful for you, and glad that my story that started as a dream is finally a real live book. It’s as much yours as mine now. Thank you for making it feel so welcome in the world 😘 xxx

Signs of Spring 💛🌼🌸
Daffodils blooming, tiny buds breaking… and my dad going full Ghostbusters with his jet-washer on a plant pot 😂

Today is the first time I saw #TheHatmakers in the wild!
Finding it on a table in @dauntbooks in Marylebone was such a rush – there among other books! 🥰
I signed them too (I asked permission first, it wasn’t a guerrilla signing but I will do that one day) so there are several newly-signed copies of The Hatmakers now on the table at Daunt’s Marylebone!
Thanks to lockdowns, though my book was out on the 18th Feb, it’s taken me this long to actually see my book in an actual bookshop!
You can’t see my humongous smile, hidden under my mask, but it’s there. It looks like this: 😁 Daunt Books

Happy World Book Day!
I love this day, dedicated to the pure joy of books and the magic of reading – and also dressing up as favourite literary characters! Basically, my perfect day: books and dressing up ✨
(I love sharing my birthday with World Book Day, too 🤓 thank you everyone who’s sent me lovely birthday wishes 🥰)
Welcome to the magical world of The Hatmakers… ✨🎩✨
This enchanting animation was made by @bryan_and_i and perfectly captures the spirit of The Hatmakers ❤️
I have written my name so many times, I feel like it is no longer even a sensible collection of letters…
These signed bookplates will be going into hardback copies of #TheHatmakers and exclusively available in independent bookshops.
Support your local indie!
💛✨🎩✨💛
