What a day for a late afternoon drive along the coast. A nice excuse to blend #familytime with business and pleasure as I dropped in to sign some books at The Secret Bookshelf, have a long awaited catch up with Jozeb Writes and Deborah Small ahead of a coffee with a view ☀️🌊

Meet Lucien, my newly acquired writing companion. Cute and loveable isn’t he? He’s named after a central character in my WIP. You’ll love him too. Love to hate him that is #newbook #CrimeThriller Little Stabs At Massacre, coming June 2026 📚🔪🩸☘️🤩

I’ve been dying to get hold of some @snowpatrol hot sauce for a while now. Couldn’t resist the photo op with another fiery product associated with the band that would be a perfect accompaniment to a chill(i) sunny evening in the garden, and just £0.99 too 📚🔪🩸🌶️🔥

A day of plotting and planning today in preparation for NCRM. This initiative continues to go from strength to strength across the UK & ROI, with NI being no exception. I’m overwhelmed with the amount of requests for events this June and thrilled to be representing @The_CWA
