And the sun begins to fade.
Still enough time to figure out
how to chase my blues away."

Time for a Hummy Press recommended read! 📖

David, one half of Hummy Press's resident creative team, read 'Wintergirls' by Laurie Halse Anderson a few years ago and highly recommends this book as an example of novel writing at its finest - even though the subject matter makes for a difficult read. Haunting, though not supernatural, and most certainly harrowing 'Wintergirls' is an important tale about the horrors of declining mental health and the search for hope.

'Wintergirls' by Laurie Halse Anderson - 'Lia and Cassie are best friends, wintergirls frozen in fragile bodies, competitors in a deadly contest to see who can be the thinnest. But then Cassie suffers the ultimate loss—her life—and Lia is left behind, haunted by her friend's memory, and feeling guilty for not being able to help save her.'

'Weeba And The Wallbanger' (suitable for ages 4 to 10 years old) by David Terry and Robert Neave is the wonderfully weird tale of a pair of oddball aliens with big hearts. They love visiting planet Earth to roller-skate and sing a special song with their best friend Meg. But one day Meg disappears, leaving our despairing duo in tears. Where has Meg gone? Why has Meg vanished? Determined not give up on their friend (after all, friends are the family members we choose) Weeba and The Wallbanger blast off into space in search of their missing Meg. 🛸❤️

Here at HP HQ we're currently in the edit on a fun little video we can't wait to share with you all soon! 🛸

Although David loves editing fun little story vids like this, he certainly doesn't like typing up all the captions that go with them. Can you spot the text mistake David has made? 🤔

Robert spotted it straight away and it will be corrected for the final video. 🤣
