I’m just saying a Strangeworlds Travel Agency-themed land at Alton Towers just makes good sense

Casual reminder that if you’re looking for some Magical Kidlit as an alternative to the bin-fire that famous property has become, Strangeworlds Travel Agency is about two kids who use magical suitcases to travel to other worlds… & it’s inclusive and diverse and fun & available in sixteen languages.

Can’t believe I never did a Strangeworlds Halloween special but I guess, thinking about it, Artezans is the Halloween special

In the mood to drop a ton of unwritten Strangeworlds lore tbh
There was originally going to be a map that showed how all the suitcases, outposts, rogue schisms and so on all linked together in the Strangeworlds Travel Agency, but it needed more dimensions than are available in conventional printing.
Always have a map in your fantasy book. Have every character contradict the map, in contradictory ways. Include a timeline and have events contradict the timeline. Include a glossary and have societies and religions interpret the glossary in contradictory ways.

There are now signed copies of Some Body Like Me, Strangeworlds and Artezans at @waterstonesargyle.bsky.social. Huge shoutout to D for recognising me instantly when I was trying to be coy and cool and subtle asking where the hardback scifi was 😭🥰🩵

The Strangeworlds Travel Agency series, by me. Jonathan, the supporting MC, is an 18yo gay trans man. He comes out softly in the first book, has binder trouble atwe falling into the sea in the second, and proudly wears pride socks in the third, amongst many other things. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

First book of the day was The Strangeworlds Travel Agency. Customer nearly went with @ldlapinski.bsky.social latest Step Father Christmas, but the promise of a trilogy was too much to resist.

Strangeworlds One isn’t even explicitly queer but it was being held up. People were SEARCHING for rep, actively trying to be inclusive. This year? Emails from Head Teachers asking to see my ppt in advance to make sure I don’t mention “sensitive topics”.

All of the Eerie-on-Sea series by Thomas Taylor, starting with Malamander. Robin Stevens’s MMU books and L. D. Lapinski’s Strangeworlds Travel Agency and Artezans reads spring to mind x
