Amazing #loveozya and #lovenzya book stack image by @foreverreadingfiction. 😍 I agree with Meghan wholeheartedly about how lucky we are to have such a supportive local industry here in Oz and NZ. And I love that readers can connect with authors so easily in the age of social media - something I would have loved as a kid and teen! Also, how amazing are bookstagrammers who take the time to plan, photograph, edit and post such delightful photos? 🤩♥️ . #Repost @foreverreadingfiction • • • • • Let’s talk book community feels! 🌠 Something I truly love about bookstagram is how it feels like an interactive community with authors, publishers, editors, & fellow readers. It’s great that we can all be on this platform, just sharing things we love. I especially love that since finding LoveOzYA I can count on seeing an abundance of authors comment on fellow authors’ posts in support of their upcoming release, an award they’re up for/received, or just hyping the book. I’ve found a lot of new to me books through these kinds of posts alone. 🌠 What’s your favourite thing about bookstagram? 🌠 Here’s some of my Australian & New Zealand YA fiction in the ever-growing collection! There are so many wonderful stories here, I recommend all of them but if you wanna know my thoughts on any I haven’t posted reviews for, let me know & I’ll talk your ear off on how great they are! . . . . #bookstack #bookspines #book #books #bookstagrammer #beautifulbooks #bookphotography #bookstagram #booklover #bookish #bookphotos #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #igreads #loveNzYA #loveOzYA #recommendations #bookshelf #bibliophile #yalit #bookish #ya #youngadult #community #authorsofinstagram

Yesterday I attended the #KidLitVic2019 Conference at Melbourne Town Hall and it was such a fabulous day. As well as an opportunity to sit in on kidlit industry panels and take part in manuscript assessments and workshops, these conferences are the perfect way to catch up with online friends, meet new people, and touch base with industry folk and what's going on in the current state of Australian children's publishing. @kidlitvic is such a well organised, friendly, informative conference, and huge appreciation goes to @alisonreynoldsauthor, @nicky_johnston, @coralvass and Alison's daughter Sarah Reynolds for all the work they do to create such a wonderful opportunity for us all. I had a great time catching up with everyone and displaying my #kidlitart portfolio in the Illustration Showcase. Feeling energised about things I'm working on and buzzing with lots of new ideas! ✨✨✨ . . #kidlitvic #kidlitconference #ozkidlitindustry #loveozkidlit #loveozya #loveozmg #loveozpicturebooks #childrensbooks #australianauthor #australianillustrator #melbourneauthor #melbourneillustrator #aussiebooks #ozkidlit

Will we see some sunshine in Melbourne-town today? If not, here are a couple of books to snuggle up with. 📚☕ Thank you so much to @marymartinbooks in Southbank for this photo from a few weeks ago, and for letting myself and @rachaelcraw pop in for a visit! #Repost @marymartinbooks • • • • • Bored teenagers at home these holidays?

I got to meet the ever-so-talented @gabriellewangbooks at Clunes Booktown Festival. Gabi and I were both shortlisted in the Aurealis Awards which were being announced as we ate dinner together in Clunes on Saturday 4th May. We bonded over obsessively checking the Aurealis Awards twitter page, waiting for news. 😄 Unfortunately neither of us came away with an award this time, but it was certainly fun to share the moment and nerves with Gabi. 👍 . #clunesbooktown #clunesbooktownfestival2019 #literaryfestival #booktown #australianauthor #loveozya #loveozmg #authorpanel #loveozkidlit #gabriellewang #sarahepstein #childrensbooks #bibliophile

I'm a bit slow in posting these remaining pics from @clunesbooktown festival a week and half ago - I got hit with a nasty headcold and haven't been doing too much in the social media department. Anyway, I really had such a great time in Clunes and look forward to visiting the festival again next year. Here are a few pics from around the town, including the Free Lending Library where all three of my panels were held (these pics were all taken first thing Sunday morning, hence the lack of crowds. It certainly got busy throughout the day!) . #clunesbooktown #clunesbooktownfestival2019 #literaryfestival #booktown #australianauthor #aussiebooks #loveozya #aussiefiction #authorpanel
