We had a visit from Joseph Swan the other day - well, a LEGO version made by Stephen Thomas: @spot_the_brick What a lovely surprise, especially as it's our bicentenary year!

Despite initial butterflies, I had such an enjoyable time at @litandphil yesterday, reading from my novel #TheRewildingofMollyMcFlynn, talking about my writing process and themes in the book. We covered witch trials, othering, daring to be different and dieting that doesn't work
