I learned last week about Hay on Wye. I discovered it after stumbling onto a reel about Wigtown, Scotland. And then I wrote last week's email newsletter about book towns.
I believe I'm now in some heavenly algorithm so I'll see lots and lots about booktowns.

Winter sun in a clear blue sky, fading to yellow on the horizon, over much green grass dotted with black cows. In the foreground are stones forming part of the Torhouse stone circle, which dates from the Neolithic or Bronze Age and has not yet been excavated.
Visited the Torhouse stone circle near #Wigtown before coming home yesterday. It's always nice weather when we go there, even if it's bucketed down all week. Really peaceful and beautiful spot.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the second hand bookshops of Wigtown, Dumfries and Galloway. I’ve filled some gaps in my collection, with a couple of surprises too. Can’t wait to go back.

Eighteen years as #wigtown book festival visitors. We're old hands but still get taken by surprise at how wonderful this festival is. Highlight for me this year was Jenny Lindsay and her talk on Hounded. The book is her story of losing her living, home, security and many friends. An incredible talk

Today I topped and tailed a superb talk by Lucy Hughes Hallett about the Duke of Buckingham and then had a conversation on stage with my brainy, articulate friend Tiffany Jenkins about the history of privacy. #Wigtown

Was saddened when visiting #Wigtown - my father’s family came from nearby & many of books I’ve published are about Cumbria/SW Scotland. To a man or woman they said “not interested” in stocking a local publisher’s books on sale or return basis.

Despicable Moi has had this out for days to normalise it. Her car seat for this year’s trip to the town of her birth and my second home. All fine now but in a few hours, when the dior shuts, I anticipate a healthy exchange of ideas #Wigtown.
