I love being a part of the #debutcrew2024 📚

My debut picture book is coming in October 🤸🤸🤸

Until then … huge congratulations to the next six of us who are now officially published authors 🤗

Here are our February releases 📚

📒THANKS FOR HAVING ME
@emmaldarragh @allenandunwin
Interwoven stories about three generations of women in one family as they navigate girlhood, motherhood and selfhood. Unflinching, tender and darkly funny, it’s perfect for fans of Jennifer Egan, Meg Mason and Paige Clark!

📘EVERYTHING IS PERFECT
@maxinefawcettwriter @penguinbooksau
Cassandra seems to have it all - but behind her perfect facade she’s barely hanging on. A captivating, honest and wry novel about a forty-something woman on the brink. Is it Peri? A midlife crisis? Or simply a cry for help?

📗TWO RABBITS
#larissaferenchuk @ekbooksforkids
Little Brown Rabbit and Little Grey Rabbit have had an argument and gone their separate ways. Will they be able to come back together and find a way to save their friendship? A perfect picture book to start a conversation about weathering friendship storms.

📕THE GIRL FROM MOSCOW
@julialevitinaauthor @panterapress
Caught up in a street protest in 1980’s Moscow and labelled a traitor, Ella is drawn into a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a KGB general. Ella dreams of escaping but what is the price of freedom in this gripping, passionate tale.

📙BREATH
@carlyjaymetcalfe @uqpbooks
Born with cystic fibrosis and facing a double-lung transplant at age twenty-one and a rare cancer at age thirty, Carly’s humour, courage and optimism became her best survival skills. A stunningly frank and darkly funny memoir about living, dying and trying to breathe.

📔TILDA IS VISIBLE
@authorjanetara @affirmpress
When Tilda Finch is diagnosed with invisibility she must face the trauma of her past and rewrite the way she perceives the world, and herself. Entertaining, hilarious and poignant, Tilda Is Visible addresses the power of our thoughts and how childhood trauma shapes our adult experience.
