I mostly read crime and psych, when I’m not being a dog dad. My own writing is a work in progress
She was a VERY good girl in the obedience display yesterday.

Then she rewarded herself by wolfing down the whole of MY bacon sandwich 😂😢

Finally got round to picking up a hard copy of Into The Fire at a local large Tesco and … 😮 😊 thank you so much @gdwrightwrites.bsky.social for the acknowledgment!

“Wisdom” really is putting it a bit strongly though 😂

I'm delighted to see that this year's Harrogate #theakstonscrime festival is going to include free, informal pop-up sessions aimed at first-timers. I can't post all the details here but have included them on my Facebook page, please see link below.

SPOTLIGHT ⭐️⭐️
Thank you @bookouture.bsky.social for including me on the #blogtour for The Secret Mistress by Ellie Monago. Thanks also to NetGalley for the digital ARC.

This book is worth adding to your list as a fine summer holiday read.

I'm shocked and saddened to learn that @gdwrightwrites.bsky.social is in hospital, battling pneumonia and sepsis.

If you can, please support him and his family and buy his astonishing debut novel, After The Storm and/or pre-order the sequel, Into The Fire. You won't regret it. Keep fighting Gaz. ❤️‍🩹🍀

I’m supposed to be working from home today - ssshh - but I’m glad to have got out into the garden for lunch and to finish reading The Death of Us by Abigail Dean. Review to follow but spoiler alert: it’s my favourite book so far this year, by miles ❤️

Two reasons why you should visit this if you can:
1. It's a brand new crime writing festival, so what's not to love?
2. It's being put together by @christiejnewport.bsky.social, and after what she's had to go through in the last year, nobody deserves your support more than she does xx

HOW good does this year's line up of special guests at Harrogate look?

If you're still on the fence about going, or have FOMO, just DO IT! I hope to see you there, and that you love it as much as I've done these past 2 years 💕 #TheakstonsCrime #TheakstonsAwards

Happy publication day to the wonderful Jenny Morris! 🎉👏🍾

To celebrate the release of An Ethical Guide to Murder, she was kind enough to take part in a great Q&A for me. Thank you so much Jenny and see you in Harrogate again this year! 😍 #authorchat

What better way to start the new year than a freezing swim with some fellow maniacs from the West Midlands Bluetits? 🥶 ❤️

So this (alongside reading) is what most of this year has been about … converting my loft into a real life cosy book nook! 📚 I still need to find a coffee table, but in the meantime there are some shelves waiting to be filled! 😍

I still have this to read after this year’s Harrogate, where I was lucky enough to meet Jenny and show her what it felt like to be chased by a crazy stalker wanting to get her book signed 😂. She’s lovely. A likely suspects crime team sounds great! 😍
