If you're into fantasy books, there's an absolute whopper of an Instafreebie Giveaway that's active until May 15th. Well over 100 books (including a 5 chapter preview of Last Of The Navel Navigators) are up for grabs. Spread the word and grab the books! #linkinbio #instafreebie #freebooks #fantasybooks #booknerd #booktastic #writersofinstagram #navelnavigators #davidhailwood

I can't help but feel this book editing process would go a lot quicker if Microsoft Word stopped trying to autocorrect 'wellies' to 'willies'. I'm trying to write a children's novel, not Mills and Boon! #editing #writing #writersofig #childrensbooks #navelnavigators #harrypotter4hillbillies #davidhailwood #brettburbridge

Another great batch of #freebooks for readers to sink their teeth into, with the #instafreebie Clean Fantasy Creatures Reads. Even though most of my #navelnavigators characters are decidedly grubby in nature, they still managed to make the cut! If you fancy some child friendly reads, click the #linkinbio. #bookstagram #bookgiveaway #fantasybooks #magicalcreatures #indiebooks #readersofinstagram #booknerd #davidhailwood #emilymarthasorensen

From the many holiday snaps taken with my #navelnavigators book, this is one of my favourites. Taken in #ajaccio whilst on the #marellaspirit cruise (paid for by In Laws Incorporated!) #booksandshares #linkinbio #99p #booklover #booknerd #bookstagram #booksale #bookishescape #bookishfeatures #igreads #writersofinstagram #davidhailwood #childrensbooks

With it being #worldbookday yesterday in several countries, I decided to bumble around the Med and see what's out there. Just my luck, I didn't spot a single monument. Next time I probably ought to take my head out of my book. #navelnavigators #colosseum #pantheon #towerofpisa #stpetersbasilica #baptistery #booksabroad #marellaspirit #davidhailwood #headinabook #booknerd

Cover designer @jdrift (Joel Tippie of Divergence and Maze Runner fame) just gave some rather lovely feedback on The Last Of The Navel Navigators cover by Brett Burbridge, referring to it as 'funny and spectacular'. You can view the cover critique video over on Reedsy's Facebook page (Navigators is 56.30 into the vid). Guess that's another goat piñata full of peanut m&m's I owe Brett! Huge thanks to Joel and @reedsy_hq for this opportunity for professional feedback. #navelnavigators #harrypotter4hillbillies #bookcoverdesign #bookcover #fantasybooks #kidsbook #bookstagram #middlegradebooks #kindle #reedsy #brettburbridge #davidhailwood #joeltippie
