#WellThisisAwkward looks like it might have similarities to #SwimmingforBeginners and I’m excited to get stuck in. Big thanks for my proof copy, @emmafinniganpr.bsky.social and @bedsqpublishers.bsky.social. Out in September.

I'm interviewing John onstage on the 22nd July in Manchester - should be a fun night. Especially if we starting drinking about 5pm, as is usual.

WE RIDE AGAIN.

Incredibly enough the tour for new novel begins on THE 12TH OF JULY in my beloved hometown of Irvine. Obviously I understand a fair few Ayrshiremen might be otherwise employed that day. More chairs to come, but I can reveal the lovely Chris MCQueer will be chairing Glasgow on 14th

Who Wants to Live Forever by Hanna Thomas Uose is out on 27 March!
'I LOVED this addictive, beautifully written novel about romance, life and immortality...The world described is recognisably ours...It’s entirely believable and therefore utterly terrifying.'

The most brilliant book!
And I'm thrilled to be reunited with @nivenj1.bsky.social for the PR trail... We first worked together on Kill Your Friends, which was a scarily long time ago!

I couldn't be more thrilled for Richard. He's the most wonderful writer and Question 7 is an extraordinary book, one of the best I've read. And what a thing to be the first author to win both the Baillie Gifford Prize and the Booker. Congratulations.

Like so many bookish types, I’m new here over the weekend and have put together a book publicist and bookish journalist starter pack to help us all find each other over here in the sunlit uplands of Bluesky. go.bsky.app/Ao2gR6R
