Plans today: 🛀 Later: The Lion King with my sister 🦁
I’m screaming! This is my first outdoor advertising I’ve ever seen. Hold Back the Stars in Taksim Square metro station, Istanbul — photo sent to me by a kind person on Twitter. Massive thanks to my publisher in Turkey @yabanciyayinlari for publishing this book with so much love and care ✨🚀🌠🌌💔 #holdbackthestars #senbenveyıldızlar 👩‍🚀👨‍🚀
Ok yes it’s a bit book heavy round here at the moment BUT I am duty bound to tell you this time travel tome is still 99p. Not for much longer tho. Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo, Google Play. All yer ebook places. 99p is 1/3 of an overpriced frothy coffee! Gooooooo ✨💔🌗🌌 #TheLightBetweenUs . . 📸 by @literaryleisha 💖
‪Four years ago today I signed with my agent, @mushenska, and together we worked on my manuscript ‘Halcyon’ — which along the way was renamed ‘Hold Back the Stars’. Four years later... ✨ The word “life-changing” is often used quite lightly but, for me, it really has been. I get to tell stories now. Thank you for everything, Juliet. Here’s to more novels and adventures (and whatsapps that say “John Boyega!! and Letitia Wright!!”) ✨4️⃣✨‬ . . . (**there are a few editions missing from the pile— I count 7! — because I filmed this on a slow day last summer and immediately forgot 😊)
Spent the morning exploring the derelict grounds of Holloway Prison with @jonnohopkins. I was amazed by the I Am Legend-esque greenery only a few years after it closed. Holloway was the largest women’s prison in western Europe... here are some interesting facts! - The painted footsteps I’m standing on (pic 2) marked the approved walkways for prisoners under observation by guards; - Jonno (pic 3) is jumping next to an abandoned swimming pool, from where a prisoner once escaped by piling up swim floats and climbing out of a skylight—she made it as far as the pub across the road; - The crinkle crankle wall along the perimeter (pic 4) is curved to help lessen any damage from explosions, after the period in the prison’s history when suffragettes blew a hole in the wall protesting the treatment of women. #hollowayprison #derelictlondon #abandonedplaces
Just a dog on his ‘olidays. Enjoy fella ☀️
Thanks to @apple who have picked THE LIGHT BETWEEN US for their Summer Loving selection. Currently 99p on Apple Books! (And Amazon has price-matched on Kindle!) So you could read the ebook on your holiday... One for you if you like time travel, groups of women being friends/allies/goddamn clever, and unrequited love 💔 ✨ #TheLightBetweenUs @applebooks ✨ 📸 by the wonderful @astrophilex3
We went to what I thought was a small local concert in a small local church. The “small local” church looked like this (!!). The concert was one of the best I’ve ever heard (and after, like, fifteen years of music school, I’ve heard a lot!). The Covent Garden Sinfonia played Max Richter’s Four Seasons Recomposed, On the Nature of Daylight, Arvo Pärt’s Fratres (which has been my favourite classical piece since my violin teacher handed 17-year-old me a CD and said, “listen to this, I think you’ll like it...”) My boyfriend booked tickets because he saw the programme was full of my favourites, but didn’t tell me until they started playing, so obviously I have to keep him now.
