Being a #bookeditor isn't all fun and reading books. Sometimes you have to do homework, like reminding yourself how @ChicagoManual treats serial commas. Lucikly, they have a quiz for that!
It’s the end of an era. I’ve had an account at the @theabqlibrary my entire life but now we’ve all moved away. Tears have been shed on this day. I grew up in the library and am so grateful for them! #library
ALT Screenshot saying that my library account at the Albuquerque Public Library has expired.
It's taken some time, but I've finally finished my @PTCBookHouse courses! I must thank @Rob_Worth & @katenascimedits for their support. They listened to me talk about needing to complete the courses for too long to mention. I wouldn't have made it without their help! Thank you!!
First day back at my desk after the @histnovsoc UK 2024 conference. (Everyone knows you have to take Monday off, right?) Feeling inspired and eager to put words on the page again! #HistoricalFiction #HistFic
With a heavy heart I leave the #HNSConference2024. What an outrageous weekend packed full of fun, wonderful people, books, ideas, talks and inspiration.
With all this energy, returning to the real world (train delays, no coffee trolley and a lonely desk) is a tad easier.
The #HNSConference2024
begins in earnest today! Bernard Cornwell, Ian Mortimer, Elizabeth Chadwick, Kate Quinn, Hazel Gaynor & Gill Paul to name just a few of the amazing authors here!!

I haven’t seen much either! Maybe tomorrow the chatter will start?

En route to Totnes/Dartington for the #HNSConference2024!
So thrilled to be heading to Devon for the first time too.
Will share as many highlights as I can over the next four days.

My SO and I both work from home, and it’s rarely a problem. Today, however, he seems to be on a call with Darth Vader and I Can. Not. Concentrate. I’m in awe of this man’s voice.
I have checked out Jane Austen at Home from the library a half a dozen times. It's one of the best Jane Austen-related resources I've found! But I'm going to give in now and buy the special new revised edition!
I'm tickled pink that on 26 September my book JANE AUSTEN AT HOME is coming out in a special new revised edition, ready for Jane's 250th birthday next year! You can pre-order it here 😃

I'm binging episodes of the @rock_swords podcast! They're fun and interesting. I found myself opening up dozens of new tabs to check out their historical research book recommendations. #HistFic authors, you need this episode! #historicalfiction #historical #bookrecommendations
Historical research! What resources do we use for our own novels? @rock_swords @MatthewHarffy @SA_McKay
Researching is a huge part of a historical fiction author's life. In this episode we discuss what we use to embed ourselves in... hpbl.uk/yourls/2q2
I've just seen this from @TLCUK! What an exciting, useful session! I'm dismayed because, for the first time in years, I won't be at @The_CIEP conference in person in Birmingham because I'll be at the @histnovsoc conference in Devon. Thank goodness for online conference options!
We are delighted to be presenting a special 90-minute version of our Ethical Editing training (which we currently run for UK publishers) at this year's @The_CIEP Conference in #Birmingham. The programme is packed full of valuable sessions for editors: ciep.uk/events/ciep-conferen…
Very excited to have a ticket tomorrow’s event by @_TheFLIP! Who’s going? I’d love to make a few new friends *before* showing up and having to stand awkwardly alone by the snack table. Help a girl out! 🙏

I miss the days when #BookTwitter was a majority positive, supportive space. So if I can help with anything, let me know. I'm an author @panmacmillan, editor @TheBookseller, run #FutureBook & @BigBookWeekend, & I mentor/edit writers. Background: tech & marketing. My door is open
Very excited to see #WoodlandStranger coming into the world! Do you like love stories? Do you like forests, fairies and magic? Ta da! Here’s a book for you!
Also thank goodness spring is finally here! 🌼🌺

Please join me in celebrating my new release on this first day of spring! janebuehler.com/books/#Woodl… The Woodland Stranger features an awkward human hero and a charming fairy slowly falling in love in a #cozyfantasy forest #TheWoodlandStranger
ALT the book The Woodland Stranger leaning against a tree trunk with vinca blooming around it; the cover shows an illustration of two men in a forest with one looking bashful
I completely agree! I wish they’d rename it OR we start another book fair that’s exactly like the Scholastic fairs from school. Such joy. Those might be my best primary school memories.
