There are not enough opportunities to get one’s face painted in grown-up life.

Throwback to Love YA festival in Brisbane last month... @kawaiiklaws did fabulous book-inspired nail art - I obviously had to get the rainbow design inspired by Night Swimming’s cover! 🌈💅🏽

🌸🌸🌸 #Repost @pocketfull_ofpages with @get_repost ・・・ QOTD: What was the last movie you watched? We finally saw ‘Ready Player One’! 🍿 🎥. . We had the amazing privilege to officially meet the lovely Steph Bowe a couple of weeks ago at the Girls Write Up festival! . . We attended a character workshop with the author which was such an incredible experience! We can’t wait to start ‘Night Swimming’ which we picked up on the day. 😊 . #stephbowe #booknerdigans #bookstagram #bookish #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #igreads #booklover #bookblogger #bookaddict #ausyabloggers #aussiereaders #bookphotography #pocketfullofpages #ausyabloggers #booknerd

#LoveYA18 was absolutely brilliant - it was such a pleasure to present an author to author in conversation session with Cath Crowley, and attend Paula Weston and Ellie Marney’s sessions. The audience and team running the event were all wonderful and there were so many other fun aspects - the Words In Deep Blue-inspired Letter Library! Face-painting! Book-inspired nail art! Such a fun day. 📚💅🏽#LoveOzYA #Repost @brisbane_writers_festival

#Repost @thestellaprize with @get_repost ・・・ @stephbowe shares their advice to their teenage self ahead of Girls Write Up Brisbane.⠀ ⠀ 'Don't be so hard on yourself - you're doing much better than you think. (But try to stress a little less.) Remember that being happy is more important than being successful, and that external success can't make you happy. Don't feel like you have to compromise yourself to make people like you. Stay weird. Be kind. Enjoy your life. Not much else matters.'⠀ ⠀ Tickets for this Friday are available from the link in our bio. Book a spot for the teen in your life. #GWU18.⠀ ⠀ Steph Bowe is a 23-year-old YA author whose novels include Girl Saves Boy, All This Could End and Night Swimming.
