I write books, plays and screenplays and am currently working on the theatrical adaptation of The Bees, a tv pilot, and a collection of short stories from the cutting room floor of the fascinating (and sometimes dangerous) research of my three novels.

POD is my latest novel, and I only now realise I have written a trilogy, because bees led me to pollinators led me to climate change led me to the Arctic led me to whaling led me to cetacean societies and the migration crisis in the ocean...

Closer to P-Day

The first reviews are coming out and it's a funny time - I'm conscious of what a wonderful position I'm in - my second novel being published - but also that there is something inherently unhealthy to the part that writes, to be in this pending state. I have book 3 cooking, but the new baby needs a lot of attention and of course it's very exciting and still a bit nerve-wracking. Perhaps it always w Read more of this blog post »

“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
