A real quick hit to say that the excellent Kim Harte was on Irish Television this week talking about a couple of books for young readers, including A Monster Calls, so check that out here.

There's also a podcast of me on RTE's Arena programme, and another where the panelists do a big, long review of A Monster Calls (though in the second one, they do get Jim's name wrong; it's Jim Kay), so check 'em out!

Greetings to the new commenters (and tons of writing tips here), more soon...
