A very happy publication day to one of #ChilternKills favourite ‘regulars’, the always brilliant Vaseem Khan and his latest, no doubt soon to be award winning Malabar House Mystery - City of Destruction.
(Although he doesn’t seem to be on here yet, so we probably could have skipped him…)

Happy publication day to the second (possibly third) handsomest British Asian writer. This book is no doubt brilliant and so I refuse to read it. Please buy it and make him happy.

Me and - as my co-founder of the festival, @paulwaters.bsky.social put it - ‘my sequel’
Note his pride of place ‘Author’ lanyard. As he would tell you: “I’ve written 7 books, you know!”

Life is for living, not recording.
Or at least that’s what I told the @chilternkills.bsky.social committee when they asked where the hell all my promised videos were!!
I even stopped this one too early!!

Well, the end of the non-drunken karaoke part, anyway.
Sorry, @chilternkills.bsky.social. I’ll go better next year. By which I mean I won’t volunteer to do the videos in the first place!!
That way everybody’s happy!!
