OK... Take a deep breath... today is the day I get to announce my first book is being published next year. I am so happy it's with Templar. They don't know that I sent my first ever picture book submission to them in 2010....

Here it is, I'm shouting from the rooftops - I need people to realise you could be related to a #Tuam baby. The link to the map is in the next tweet.

I asked my students in my #Microhistories MA module at @BirkbeckHCA to find a primary source and come up with a pitch for a microhistory that started with that source. The results were brilliant!
