@nikkismithauthor.bsky.social and I are really looking forward to interrogating (I mean, interviewing) Tom Hindle next week! I’d tag him in this but I think the Tom Hindle on here is a different Tom who keeps getting mistaken for crime writer Tom! 💙📚🎤

Just 6 months until #TheakstonsCrime 2025! Let the countdown commence 🕰️

Who is this smug woman? Rashid took it at Xmas & I’ve only just seen it! Seems fitting to post it on my publication day. Not that I’m smug but in 2017 I was on the verge of giving up on writing, so I feel very lucky to now have 5 novels out there & a TV series based on one of them coming soon. 🤸‍♂️🎬💙📚

It’s paperback publication day for The Other Tenant! If you spot it in the supermarkets or shops, do please send me a pic 🙏🤗 as I have to stay at home today for a delivery. Thanks to everyone who’s read and reviewed the hardback. I’m so grateful. ❤️

This is my fifth novel (paperback coming Thursday) and I can no longer remember whether it was harder or easier to write than the others. I have a feeling every novel nearly kills me and then I forget the pain and start writing another one. #TheOtherTenant 💙📚 #thriller #crimefiction amzn.to/48xSQLe

Not today, Mirko. I’m in the middle of cooking a chicken casserole…

I just had to buy this beautiful edition of The Secret History. It was displayed in my new local bookshop - Station Books in Tunbridge Wells - but now it’s here, posing next to my ornamental vase. My old paperback version is so dog-eared…

I went to a barre fitness class this morning. Bloody hell! Such simple moves, but OMG, I’m feeling it now! 🤣🤣

👀 Are you the type who pre-orders their next thriller, or do you wait for release day? 💬 If you're team pre-order, The Other Tenant is ready and waiting for you. ⬇️ Reserve your copy today! 💙📚 amzn.to/48xSQLe #PreOrderNow #BookCommunity #BooksOnBluesky #BlueskyBooks
