Two months till the launch of The Burning Grounds, the new Wyndham & Banerjee novel! I'll be going round the country, chatting with some stellar writers. There'll be laughs, tears, wine, more tears and murder (possibly). It's gonna be great! Hope to see you there!
A fantastic night @borderlinesfest with the legend that is @MWCravenUK, talking about #TheBurningGrounds to a packed house. And thanks to Jo Craven for the fantastic chocolates from @Castle_Chocs . Next stop: Newcastle and Gateshead!

Wife came in and gave me a big hug earlier. Asked her what it was for. She said she's embracing her mistakes.

Due in November, @radiomukhers.bsky.social's latest, THE BURNING GROUNDS reunites Wyndham and Bannerjee... Their sharply drawn friendship remains a huge draw to the series as they investigate a death connected to 1920s Indian cinema... a crackingly vibrant and emotionally affecting mystery. Go read.

The next time the West tries to press a country on human rights, they will point to our silence at the crimes being committed upon the people of Gaza and rightly call us hypocrites.
