Just finished reading my review copy of Rose & Renzo, coming soon from @northodoxpress.bsky.social. LOVED it!

Fabulous book post today from @nightjarpress.bsky.social! Many thanks to @nicholasroyle.bsky.social

I completed C25K today!
I was a regular runner at one time, but until I began this programme I hadn't done any running for over 30 years. When I started again, even 60 seconds seemed a long time to run, so I'm quite chuffed with myself. Though I am verrrry slowwww! 😂

Thanks to everyone who came out in the cold for my event at Marsden Library last night - it was a lovely evening!
Huge thanks to the fabulous Friends of Marsden Library for hosting the event and for supporting libraries and authors!

Four of my favourite nonfiction reads in 2025 - thought-provoking, powerful, hearbreaking, and beautifully written.

I made it onto a 'best reads of 2025' list on Substack! Thanks to Helen Lapping for including Crossing the Lines as her best novella read!

I had a lovely evening at Pickering Book Tree the other week, reading from The Blue of You and chatting with the wonderful Clare Almond about all things writerly. Thanks also to Andrew and Steph, and to the stoic audience who came out despite the torrential rain and high winds!

I'm always thrilled to see The Blue of You out in the field, and here is the lovely Motoko with her dog Chee, reading it whilst on a trip to Gora, Hakone!

TOMORROW! Be there or be EXCEEDINGLY square!

If you're near Pickering & are free next Friday evening, then you are strongly advised to take a break from Christmas shopping & head to Pickering Book Tree for my book event! It would be lovely to see you there.

As well as The Blue of You being recommended by a reviewer as an ideal stocking filler - Christmas setting and under a tenner! - my writing has been likened to that of both Claire Keegan and Anne Tyler! That's far too generous, but I'm taking it!

Yes, I know I shouldn't mention the dreaded festive season, but it's only a few weeks away! And The Blue of You has been called a 'stocking filler', so now I definitely can...

As well as rescheduling my event at Marsden Library - still tbc - I have another event lined up at Pickering Book Tree on Friday December 5th if any of you can make it!

It's a free event and tickets can be booked using the link.

I'm so sorry, but tonight's event at Marsden Library has had to be cancelled - due to me being (very uncharacteristically) poorly! Apologies for the short notice, but I was battling on and thought I could still do it! The event will be rescheduled, so I'll keep you posted!

Would love to see you at my book launch event! Please join me in conversation with Friends of Marsden Library this Thursday at 7.30pm!

A week today! Hope to see some of you lovely folk in Marsden next Thursday evening!

Hosted by Friends of Marsden Library - Keeping Marsden Library Open

The Blue of You has some Christmas vibes, and as it's almost November, I think I can mention that safely and without apology! 😄
