I’m thrilled to finally reveal the fabulous cover of WARNING: Grandma’s Gone Bonkers – the latest addition to the Words of WARNING collection – illustrated by the exceptionally talented Theo Jarvis (aged 13) and due for publication by @CranthorpeBooks in Feb 2026!
Nero fears his er mind. After all, she’s been acting very strangely…
But when his parents vanish and top-secret government agents are called in to investigate, Nero begins to question everything. Are his mum and dad responsible for the recent spate of burglaries in the area? Is his headteacher really a vampire? And what’s with the mysterious cloak hanging in his grandma’s hall closet?
Determined to get to the bottom of things, he and his best friend Jess are left with no choice: they must enlist Grandma’s help and launch an investigation of their own.
Will their quest for the truth send the old lady over the edge? Or could there be more to Grandma than meets the eye?

I don’t think I’ve ever felt quite so lost during a school visit as I did when I visited Madley Brook Primary on Friday 23rd October!
The corridors seemed to form a maze that my brain simply couldn’t make sense of. I must have looked ridiculous wandering around aimlessly, trying the hall. But in no time at all, I realised just how lovely the staff were. There was always someone nearby, ready and willing to point me in the right direction, allowing me to instantly relax.
And if the staff were kind and accommodating, the pupils were every bit as wonderful.
I struggled to keep a straight face on many occasions during my assembly because they got so involved with brilliant questions and comical comments. And when it came to me reading aloud, they did a great job of heckling my narrator! They made the whole experience so much fun, and I immediately knew I was in for a brilliant day.
The Year 5 and 6 workshop was incredible. I could have spent the whole day with these pupils. Their enthusiasm, eagerness to interact, creativity, and sheer talent were exceptional. When it came to their creative writing, every pupil seemed to have developed such a unique style of their own, and the standard was incredibly high. It was lovely to have time to work my way around everyone individually, hear their stories, answer their questions, and talk about all things books.
My workshops with Reception, Years 1 and 2, and Years 3 and 4 were also extremely enjoyable. You’d never have known that it was the last day of term from the hard work and effort everyone put into my activities. And there were so many pupils who deserved recognition that we kept adding more and more certificates into the mix.
Deciding who to award my dragon prize to was tricky. But it was Harley who ended up winning it for a superbly comical story, and for being brave enough to read it aloud to me. 🐉
A huge thank you to everyone at Madley Brook Primary for making my first visit such a memorable one.
And special thanks to all the parents and pupils who braved the storm and queued during the gale-force winds and pouring rain to buy books at the end of the day. ❤️

I first met Oaklee in the summer of 2025, when I did an author visit at Bridgwater Library. He and his mum have been in touch a number of times since, and I’ve recently been treated to this wonderful story he’s written.
They’ve very kindly given me permission to share it, so and Seek!
If this is what Oaklee can come up with at just seven years old, I can’t wait to see the stories he’ll be writing in the years ahead.
Well done, Oaklee! I think you’ve got a very exciting writing journey ahead of you. 😊

When I heard that St Saviour’s Primary had an “author chair”, I just had to see it! 💺
Mr Hussain kindly arranged for it to be carried through from the library to the hall, where it sat proudly alongside my display whilst I stood and delivered two back-to-back assemblies.
Of ick seat for a photo opportunity. 📸 And that’s when I realised it didn’t just LOOK fantastic… it was also quite possibly one of the comfiest chairs I’ve ever sat in.
But the fact that it went missing on the very day that I visited St Saviour’s Primary was purely a coincidence…
I didn’t take it home with me at the end of the day, I promise!
(DISCLAIMER: The “author chair” didn’t REALLY go missing, though I rather wish it HAD magically found its way into my office!)

Oh, to be a child again... when your imagination could take you absolutely anywhere. ✨
I love seeing the wonderfully weird and wonderful ideas children come up with. And one of my favourite parts about being an author is that I get to see that imagination in action all the time isits.
Perhaps we don’t lose our imaginations when we grow up... we just forget to tap into them on a regular basis. ❤️

I absolutely LOVE visiting Innsworth Junior School. Every time I go there, I feel like I BELONG there… It’s like returning home. 🏠
And my visit there on Thursday 22nd October was no exception. ♥️
The pupils were so excited to see me and had lots to tell me. Throughout the th little cards and pictures, waved at in the corridors, and stopped for chats at lunchtime. It was wonderful to catch up with everyone again.
The pupils were a great audience during my assembly. They listened attentively throughout and had some brilliant ideas for the next title in the Words of WARNING collection.
And when it came to the workshops, both the pupils and teachers were so engaged and involved. There was such a lovely atmosphere throughout the sessions, with everyone giving my activities their all, sharing their ideas aloud, and producing some fantastic work. It was a real pleasure to witness.
We awarded so many certificates throughout the day. And Jack ended up winning my dragon prize for a superbly comical story written under the writing prompt Grandpa and the Pickle-Powered Time Machine. 🥒
The school council members always kindly help out with book sales at the end of the day. They were a super bunch this time around… so helpful, so lovely, and an absolute pleasure to have around. It’s just a shame I’m not allowed to take them with me on ALL of my school visits! 😂
Huge thanks to Mrs Samson for always doing such a fantastic job of getting the word out about my visits, generating excitement before I arrive, and being such a great help throughout the day.
And thank you to everyone at Innsworth Junior for another spectacular day. ♥️
I’m already counting down the days until I see you all again on World Book Day 2028! 📚

I had a fantastic return visit to Ulverley School on Tuesday 20th October, where I delivered a whole-school assembly followed by six workshops.
The pupils were incredibly engaged and creative throughout the day, producing some wonderful poems, stories, songs, raps, diary designs.
But the highlight for me was the brilliant new titles they came up with for the Words of WARNING collection. There were so many great suggestions, but my favourite by far has to be WARNING: Santa Is Going to Steal Your Underwear. It certainly had everyone giggling! 😂
Congratulations to Jakob, who won my dragon prize for his incredibly inventive imagination. 🐉
And huge thanks to all of the phenomenal staff and pupils at Ulverley School for another unforgettable day with you all. ❤️
