Publication day for the latest #KidLitUK title from one of my favourite authors of all time! Traitors' Nest by @franceshardinge.bsky.social is as brilliant as you'd expect from her, and I was really pleased to ask a few questions of her for teenlibrarian. teenlibrarian.co.uk/2026/08/27/t...

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing
This frontispiece in my book just made me laugh a lot. Is this Buddhist reincarnation, or some other form of afterlife?
@franceshardinge.bsky.social The Guardian reviews Traitors' Nest as "Humane, complex and inimitably inventive, this magnificent 12+ fantasy is yet another barnstormer from the Costa-winning Hardinge." www.theguardian.com/books/2026/a...

@terryandrob.bsky.social "The anthropologists got it wrong when they named our species Homo sapiens ('wise man'). In any case it's an arrogant and bigheaded thing to say, wisdom being one of our least evident features. In reality, we are Pan narrans, the storytelling chimpanzee."

As I told people on the day, this sort of symposium seemed like an honour usually reserved for the illustrious dead. I felt a bit like Tom Sawyer gatecrashing his own funeral and listening to people saying nice things about him.☺️
Saturday's "Symposium of Frances Hardinge" was a really lovely, friendly event. Listening to so many brilliant analyses of my work was a surreal and delightful experience! Many thanks to organisers @effjayem.bsky.social and @coughingbear.bsky.social, all the speakers, and everyone who came!
