@BarbaraBleiman These concerns are so widespread, but that’s why it’s great to have resources like this, and organisations like @EngMediaCentre, as reference points and voices of wisdom.

It was such a nourishing and inspiring session - thank you so very much! I can’t put it better than this comment from one of our mentors: “Gosh. We drank this in. Please can Barbara come back?”

@KaKatewinter @PuffinBooks Great to hear from you Kate! Yes, it would be great to talk covers soon. My draft ms for the collection is due in Sept, and publication should be next spring. I’d be thrilled if you’d do the cover art again!

@GGeorgiahilton Keep going! My record was seven or eight times with @theinterpreter6, so when they finally accepted a poem it felt all the more exciting. Good luck!
