Our author @fifnona has shared some words about the books that inspired her to write her book...or the lack of books that offered the flexible routines that Fiona felt were needed. "There were a couple of books that inspired me to write my book. They were very strict routine parenting books. When I went in to help parents they were trying to follow the routines in the books and getting themselves very stressed when the baby wouldn’t do what the book said. So, I wrote my book to help parents find what worked for them and their babies. Flexible routines and to listen to the baby. A routine, but flexible to the baby’s needs." If you are a new parent, or have friends that are, this book offers practical advice with a holistic approach to the whole family. #newbaby #maternitynurse #babytips #happybaby #newparents #nonfiction #practicalwisdom #bookstagram #bookshelf

Or 'Haec Olim Meminisse Juvabit'. Following on from the book that inspired Canal Pushers, this is one of @andygriffee 's favourite quotes from Virgil. Andy loves how it is "a call to stoicism and a reminder that, no matter how bad things can feel in the moment, time will pass and you will survive them." Very relevant quote to think about in these difficult and strange times! #virgil #qootd #quoteoftheday #publishing #independentpublishers #quote #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookshelf #design

Today we're sharing some words from @andygriffee about what inspired his first book Canal Pushers: "The book which most inspired my debut mystery, Canal Pushers, is The Thirty-Nine Steps written by John Buchan in 1915. This famous spy-thriller is set just prior to World War I and tells the story of Richard Hannay attempting to escape from German spies. It's a gripping adventure and largely comprises of one long cat and mouse chase. I wanted to repeat this idea but also rise to the challenge of making the chase exciting in spite of it taking place at just 4 miles per hour in an 18-tonne narrowboat on the canal system. Buchan wrote nearly 30 novels, and many can feel slightly dated now, but he was an outstanding storyteller who knew how to keep you wanting to turn to the next page." #publishing #indiepublishers #authors #inspiration #canalpushers #riverrats #oxfordblues #fiction #canalnoir #mysteryseries #books #bookstagram #reading #welovereading #bookshelf #mystery #thriller

Today we thought we'd share @Averildopperman 's influences. She said the following: "As for influences, so many! No one book has inspired me. I trained as a journalist and the late, great Donal Foley, news editor at The Irish Times made you question the value and relevance of every word chosen. Currently I am reading 'Becoming' by Michelle Obama and the biography of Evelyn Waugh by Selina Hastings. I love good writing which carries you willingly through the narrative and leaves you wanting more..." #publishing #indiepublisher #indiepublishing #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookshelf #whileitisyetday #quaker #elizabethfry #michelleobama #becoming #quote #inspiration

We hope everyone had a lovely bank holiday weekend

We hope everyone had a lovely bank holiday weekend! Over the month of June, we thought we would ask our authors about their favourite quotes as well as the books that inspired them. Keep an eye out as there is plenty more to follow... @averildopperman chose this quote from Macbeth, that also happened to be one of Elizabeth Fry's favourite quotes. Averil says she loves these words and they often help her when facing a hard day! One way or another, what's going to happen will happen, but there is always light at the end of the tunnel, and even the worst day will end. I think we can all use this one to inspire us as we are coming out of one of the strangest and most difficult years. What are your favourite quotes? #quoteoftheday #qotd #quotes #inspiration #shakespeare #macbeth #publishing #indiepublishers #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookshelf #reading #lovereading #elizabethfry #whileitisyetday
