I’ve seen lots of posts promoting the National Year of Reading which is brilliant! Not so brilliant is that there are some using AI-generated imagery which is disheartening. Illustrations are really important when it comes to children wanting to pick up books. Let’s keep the industry thriving!
#NewIllustrationOfTheDay by Becka Moor. Elegant and appealing caricature for Reggie Rabbit and the Metro Mice, part graphic novel, part chapter book by Swapna Reddy. Young detective Reggie Rabbit investigates underground. Oxford Children’s 1 Jan. @beckamoor.bsky.social @oxfordunipress.bsky.social
The true Hogwarts Legacy is 70k pounds donated to the people who took the legal definition of 'woman' to the UK supreme court and got a ruling that excluded trans women. You can't 'separate the artist from the art' when the proceeds of the art are used to attack trans people.
The UK Supreme Court really thinks it's done something. Trans people aren't going anywhere no matter how many courts they buy out. This ruling will be a shameful mark on the UK for decades to come and is the real legacy of JK Rowling.
I was a huge fan of HP growing up, and into adulthood. That is passed, that is purged. I will not line the pockets of hateful people who do harm to vulnerable communities. I stand with the trans community and am deeply saddened by today’s ruling. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. 🏳️⚧️
Chef Kennedy🐸🏳️🌈@kennedytcooper.bsky.social · last yr.There's simply no ethical way to support Harry Potter in 2025. It's not possible. $0.20 from every dollar you give JK Rowling goes directly to physically harming a trans person and that's not a joke or an exaggeration.
She is beauty, she is grace… one wrong move, and she’ll eat your face.
Hello 👋 It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. I’ve been very busy working on several projects. I’ve just finished the 4th book in a series I’ve been working on for about 3 years, so I’m taking a minute to catch my breath a bit. Back soon with some new work!
YIPPEE!! So proud to see Reggie Rabbit by me, @beckamoor.bsky.social and @oxfordchildrens.bsky.social on this incredible longlist. Hugest congratulations to all the awesome authors and illustrators on the list and thank you @alligatorsmouth.bsky.social 🐰🔍🥕

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.
five pennies in a trenchcoat@snickettes.bsky.social · last yr.Oh please please i am begging, don't use generative AI for any reason if you can avoid it. It's being marketed as a quick time-saver, but it's messy, inaccurate, it is putting entire industries of people out of work, and the environmental impacts (energy and water usage) are huge and debilitating.
It’s expensive to be gluten intolerant. Either my insides hurt or my wallet hurts.
