(Whispers...)

It's coming soon. The final proofs of Winterbourne are here.

Modern gothic with all the classic tropes.

This is definitely going on my Christmas list - it'll make the perfect present for any gothic writer! 😂

Peak Edinburgh!

Body Count comes out a week today - and I can thoroughly recommend it. In Saffy, @juliecohen.bsky.social has conjured up one of those fictional characters you wish you could spend an evening with down the pub. A killer creation!

Ah, the absolute pleasure of a new book at bedtime 😁

Looking forward to this one!

The storm's heading towards Edinburgh, so I suppose this must be its calling card.

Brilliant reading this week - I managed to snag an advance copy of Annie Knows Everything by Rachel Wood - thanks to @bonnierbooks.bsky.social.

If you loved Eligible by @csittenfeld.bsky.social, this one's for you. Look out for it next April.

This person went to Harrogate but failed to take any pictures of writers, books or giant signs.

I did take a few of pictures in the local art gallery, though. 😂

Yes, I did brave the drizzle for the sake of a milkshake!

Yes, please keep telling me about the tropical weather you're all suffering with...

Why not visit Edinburgh instead? 😂
