To get you in the mood for plenty of backstabbing election drama, may I recommend GAY CLUB!

(Features all the kids the rancid Conservatives and right-wing press will throw under the bus during the campaign!) 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

It’s the race to be president of a school LGBTQ+ society…

Thank you Scholastic UK !!

And last but certainly not least, happy #PubDay to Simon James Green for the US publication of 'Boy Like Me'! This is needed now more than ever teens, educators and librarians alike will want to have this title on their shelf.

It’s happening - early copies of THE DOUBLE LIFE OF TED AMOS are arriving! Can’t wait to tell you more about my new middle grade in the coming days!

Find the courage to hold on to love, against all odds 💚🤍🩵💙 Boy Like Me by Simon James Green is out today. bit.ly/44WTwrW

BOY LIKE ME is out today in the US. A story from the past about LGBTQ+ moral panic, book banning, appalling bigotry… and two teenage boys who find something beautiful in all the hate.

I’m only sorry it’s become so relevant now.

I am happy to sign (and have signed!) anything from second hand copies and battered old copies to homework planners, ties, actual bananas and a Year 8 boy’s face.

Lots of discussion about the lack of evidence to support the Government’s proposed changes to statutory RSE guidance today. Interestingly, those changes don't (seem to) involve removing faith-based carve-outs to the subject, allowing faith schools to teach religiously based RSE.

I’m sad to say ‘Boy Like Me’ by Simon James Green is my Book of the Week. Sad, because we all thought cruel laws like Section 28 were a thing of the past…

Today is a great day to read Boy Like Me by Simon James Green. Books change lives 💪

Firstly Simon James Green #MalloryHeyer The Big Ask. Alfie is sweet but awkward, very uncool, not popular but can he ask the coolest boy in school to prom? Releasing 6th June, this is Simon's first book for Barrington Stoke, hopefully there will be more.
