About last night. When I met my hero ‘King of Crime’ #GarryDisher Winner of the Ned Kelly Lifetime Achievement Award, 50 plus books, fab Aussie noir. @waterstonestrafsq His first UK tour. You too would kneel! #authorlife #crimewriter #mischancecreek @viper.books

Morning campers. A fab retro read for you today #PresumedInnocent from 1987! Still a gripping #thriller. #research #WIP #mondaymotivation
A dark thriller full of twisted icons. My first born, Number 1 bestseller, #callmemummy Currently free to read on Kindle Unlimited.
I was gaslit into seeing #TheOdyssey by the reviews. What did these guys watch that I didn’t? I’d hoped they’d spent £2.50 on the script rather than simply splurging on the effects. But no. I felt nothing. Apart from the dog. 5 stars? Masterpiece? I’ll never get those hours back.
Trigger warning! If you’re about to watch Prime’s #RideorDie with the incandescent #hannahwaddington & #octaviaspencer be aware there are SHOCKING scenes of #book torture ! 😱🤣😱

I’m nervous for my brother. For years I’ve been known as ‘Leicester’s sister’. He’s a mega #football fan. With his team, ‘not doing so well’, his hopes rest on #england I can watch with the attitude, ‘I’ve been let down by so many men, what’s 11 more.’ He can’t. #WorldCup2026
This has blown me away. Lovely Nicola from nothing.beats.a.good.book has been one of my biggest supporters from the beginning. On days I feel glum because I’m currently #writing in a vacuum, her faith keeps me going. Thank you all #bookbloggers who give their time to champion #authors 🩷
