Consulting my home-stock reveals that @peterbently.bsky.social is a particular favourite and a strong contributor to dog books. See the more recent 'Dogs in Disguise' as well as the *forever* classic (now 17 years old!) 'The Great Dog Bottom Swap'

A blue book cover showing an illustration of at least two dogs standing on top of each other while wearing human clothes and holding a blue leash attached to a small white dog, possibly a Maltese. The book is called "Dogs in Disguise", written by Peter Bently, illustrated by John Bond.A book cover showing an illustration of a dalmatian playing a contrabass, a small lab on the piano, and what appears to be a hyena look-a-like dog on the sax.

My immediate thought was the Disreputable Dog from Garth Nix's Old Kingdom series. For a book where the focus is all on the dogs I would go for Anthony McGowan's Dogs of the Deadlands. Bren MacDibble's The Dog Runner is also great for dog lovers.

Front cover of Lirael by Garth Nix. A young woman with long dark hair stands ready to fight with a sword in one hand and a knife in another. A large blue symbol like a triangle with the top of a capital T running across it intermingles with her image.Front cover of Dogs of the Deadlands by Anthony McGowan. A longhaired white Husky-type dog is running over snow in a forest, a slip shorthaired grey dog with long hair on its ears runs to the left of the white dog. Behind them is a power station.Front cover of The Dog Runner by Bren MacDibble. The silhouettes of two sitting dogs contain an arid hilly landscape in reddish tones. Two young people are on a trike pulled by dogs. There are leafless trees and the sun is large in the sky but a river meanders into the distance. The title and author are also within the dogs silhouette in white text against the red background. Behind the silhouette the page is cream/white speckled with red.

In my ongoing attempt to persuade you to pre-order A Scrap of Moss & Magick – or request your library for a copy! – I thought I’d show you some of the inspiration behind it. Some of this influenced the way I wrote the book, some of it is more vibes based…

A man with “morals so loose they flapped when he walked”—no, not the usual suspect but a character in #KatherineRundell ‘s new Glimouria book. Dazzling wordplay from a goddess of English prose (if prose can dance). That 300 yet? (keen to get back to ch3)

Picture of a book called “Impossible Creatures: The Neverfear” by Katherine Rundell (Bloomsbury). The cover is dominated by a soaring phoenix(?) while far below a child (11 or 12ish) standing on an ornate tower waves to it.

Over the summer, I missed posting some newly published books. Time to make up for it!

Atlas & Skye, by Emma Smith Barton, is about friendship, memories & the future, a children's book told in alternating verse & prose. Looks fab. Congratulations Emma!

The book held in front of a bush in my garden. The cover has a cutout keyhole in the centre below the title, inside which are the words ‘Enter here’. The bottom of the artwork is the curved surface of the sun above which planets float in space.

Oh dear. Just noticed I forgot to post the picture & alt text.
Clearly I have much to learn when it comes to social media, promotion, & PAYING ATTENTION.
You can pre-order through the links in my bio. Go on! You might like it! Look at that gorgeous cover!

The graphic shows a copy of my book, A Scrap of Moss and Magick, with its lovely cover art of a girl's head, green hair flowing into woods and plants, a magpie and a smoky cat, in the distance, a country house. What the book's about: Thirza is a servant girl with magickal talents, which she uses to get her chores done and also to have fun. She lives in a big country house owned by a retired magician, Lord Wulfric. The arrival of Lord Wulfric's niece Cecily (and her pet magpie!) changes everything. Soon dangerous secrets start coming to light, and Thirza will have to decide between the life of her best friend and her own.
