I’m taking July away from social media, to give me more headspace to read, walk, think, plot and get started on Book Number TEN! Have a good July folks, and see you again soon … #amwriting
I just spotted the #Dutch edition of Lake Child on Amazon, and it’s made my day! IJS KOUD 🥰 @boekerij #Netherlands
Congratulations to Mary, who entered via Twitter - this lovely book stack will be winging its way to you shortly! Thanks to all who entered, and do stick around for another giveaway next month x
Well, that was fun! I’ve been at Lyme Crime festival this week, talking on a panel about West Country settings in fiction with @william1shaw @amanda_jennings1 & @heidiperks_author - three lovely people and very fine writers to boot. It coincided with the rail strike, so sadly some authors couldn’t make it, but I’m glad to say our brilliant moderator William battled through traffic to arrive just in time for our spot. I’m exhausted now (it being my first REAL book festival since way back before lockdown) but simultaneously energised by the whole experience of mixing with readers and fellow authors again. Hello world, we’re back! Thanks to @marinetheatrelymeregis for hosting us, to @lyme_bookshop for supporting so brilliantly during #IndieBookshopWeek and to the wonderful Paddy Magrane for creating a very special new festival indeed. 🙏❤️🥂 *If you’re near #LymeRegis today, it’s not too late to pop into the theatre for last minute tickets to the final day’s events!
We’re gonna keep you waiting a little while longer on the cover reveal, but I’m pleased to say #Homecoming pre-orders are now open for business! Kindle & Audiobook out Nov 2022, Paperback coming 2023 👇📚✨ tinyurl.com/Homecoming99p
Isn’t this one of the most beautiful library entrances you’ve ever seen? I stumbled across Carnegie Library when wandering around Portsmouth this week, and was blown away by the beauty of it, standing majestically over the Fratton Road. I popped in for a quick chat with the librarians, who were absolutely lovely too 📚🥰✨ #LoveLibraries
Happy Father’s Day to @carpentercolin_ - lovely Dad to @studio_urchin & @samsoncroucher and devoted Dogfather to Charlie & Leonard 💚🐾💚 #fathersday
Not all writers feel the same, but I LOVE the copy-edit part of the writing process. Yes, it's a fiddle, but this close to the finish line it's reassuring to know that after my publisher and agent, the book has also been deep read & interrogated by my trusted copy-editor Linda, who has worked on 8 of my 9 books! ✍️ Hoping to share news of my forthcoming novel very soon …
Happy Bank Hol vibes in Dorset this weekend with @studio_urchin @carpentercolin_ & The Hairy Boys ❤️ There was Colin’s alfresco Tom Yum … sunny music from the @the_skalatans in Buckydoo Square … celebratory dumplings and cocktails at my fave @eatdorshi (yay for Ali graduating in her graphic design apprenticeship!) … rare plant pleasures at @charleschesshire … fragrant dog walks at @symondsburyestate … and more awesome cocktails at @darkbearbar (yay for me nearing the finish line of my next book! Note: giddy pic of me is a couple of drinks in 🤪). All that was missing was @samsoncroucher @jordanhoughtonn & @mayabrasington ❤️
