My heartfelt thanks to every reader of my work: you have given it your time, your attention, and whether or not you liked it or felt repaid, you engaged - even for a little while if DNF. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your positive feedback, or your heartfelt reasons for your aversion. Writers are fortunate in that we can calibrate all that against our growing awareness of what we want to do.

As authors, we put ourselves out there and as readers we do that too, hoping to find that communion with other minds, maybe even souls, through stories. None of us would be here on Goodreads if we didn’t believe that there was something truly important in the quest for making and reading, truly good books.

Best wishes
Laline

Schrodinger's Prize

So Pod's out in the world, the slings and arrows and all that - but also - the shortlisting for The Women's Prize in the UK! Didn't see that one coming, and it's a great honour and is bringing the book to readers all over the world.

The prize is announced on June 14th, just under a month from today, and odds are the shortlist is as far as POD goes. But it doesn't matter, because you don't write a Read more of this blog post »

Laline Paull and 2 other people liked Anne McMillan's review of Pod:
Pod by Laline Paull
"An unusual novel, seeing the watery world through the point of view of dolphins and whales. I found it to be a powerful and emotional story and it piqued my curiosity: I learned a ton about interesting facts about cetaceans and other marine life. The" Read more of this review »
Pod by Laline Paull
"Loved it, such an insight into the oceans and a reminder of what a terrible mess we are making of them. Very subtle and took me a while to get the messages."

“You have wings and courage and a brain. Do not annoy me by asking permission." Lily 500 in The Bees”
Laline Paull, The Bees

“Then kindly recall that variation is not the same as deformity.”
Laline Paull, The Bees

“Flora took pleasure in the delicacy of her approach and studied the ways of the smallest, sweetest blooms she could find, tiny pimpernels and forget-me-nots hiding in the pockets of the fields. The energy of the sun on her body and the joy of foraging filled her soul. She flew the fields and gathered until the light began to fade and she heard the sound of her forager sisters' wings turning for home. Then she joined them.”
Laline Paull, The Bees
