Review by @chrisconnor96

The writing on a fur-covered keyboard actually had an end result. Very pleased that this will be out soon.

A very nice surprise this morning...

I had so much fun spending an hour on stage with @pollypullar1 at the @WigtownBookFest earlier this month, chatting to a packed crowd. She's a wonderful interviewer and lovely person, and the festival was amazing. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #newfoundland #scotland

I'm halfway home to Newfoundland after a wonderful book tour in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 that included @WigtownBookFest and @BloodyScotland where I had this lovely portrait done by Paul Reich. I can't say enough good things about both festivals. I can't wait to go back!

Excellent #bookpost from the lovely @BaskervilleJMP this morning. The new book by @NatalieMarlow2, Death Comes As A Shadow. I love her William Garrett series set in 1930s Birmingham. Didn’t realise there was a new one!
