Delighted with this review of All At Sea in today’s The Sun. Always incredibly grateful ⚓️⚓️⚓️

Hard to believe that All at Sea has been out a MONTH already! (Where does the time go?) Thank you to all the lovely people who’ve said such wonderful things about it already. And if you’re inclined, a review online would always be very helpful! Thank you!!!

A very happy #worldbookday to everyone. I remember reading this in primary school and being completely engrossed. And I’m lucky enough to be able to share it with my own kids now. Always be reading!

Bit of a wobble ⛸️

How cool is this! All At Sea is in this week’s My Weekly! And in some wonderful company too (as always)

A great big pile of All At Sea (and more) signed across London! A huge thank you to all the wonderful booksellers and readers who made me feel very much at home ⚓️

A MASSIVE thank you to all the readers, writers and everyone else who wished me a very happy publication day for ALL AT SEA ⚓️ It’s all been a bit of a whirlwind and a busy week coming up. But you’ve made an old battle axe very happy! Thank you!!!

Treating myself on publication day to an early walk and a bit of breakfast. Thank you to everyone who has said such kind and lovely things about All St Sea already! ⚓️

It’s a little thing, but it’s important. Ahead of All At Sea’s release next week, I’m feeling immensely proud to see all my other work mentioned. This writing lark sure knows how to pick you up at times 😃

Some lovely words from some even lovelier people! I’m always so appreciative and so humbled by the support ahead of a new book coming out. So this is a MASSIVE thank you to everyone! 🔗 www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/0008...

Britain is facing a reading crisis. How do we change that?   I am supporting the Sunday Times Get Britain Reading campaign. Join me and pledge to spend at least 10 minutes a day reading for the next six weeks link.thetimes.co.uk/join/74t/sig...

What an amazing way to spend publication day! Had the honour of chatting with some @ucalgary.bsky.social students about crime fiction and their own writing. They’re a clever bunch!!!

It’s UK paperback publication day for Murder in Tinseltown. And as HarperNorth is celebrating five years this autumn, I thought I’d stack up my contribution to this wonderful publisher and team’s output (plus something new!) Here’s to five MORE years and beyond!

A big box of murder!!! My author copies of the fabulous UK paperbacks of Murder in Tinseltown have arrived. And it’s out next month! 🔗 www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/0008...

The neighbours are going to HATE us!

A few (of the many) highlights from this year’s @bloodyscotland.bsky.social A huge thank you to my fellow authors, the organisers and the wonderful volunteers that make this such a highlight every year!

A message and a bargain from Stirling! 🔗 www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0D6...

Guess where I am…

The perfect writing desk doesn’t exist…

I was saddened to hear of Allan Ahlberg’s passing a few weeks ago. Many happy childhood memories involving his books. Bought one of my favourites for the next generations of Whitelaws.

What a treat to be included in this fabulous roundup of immersive crime novels in @washingtonpost.com ahead of Murder in Tinseltown's US launch. And in some esteemed company too!!!

A Sunday morning talking cozy crime in some fine company beckons at this year’s @bloodyscotland.bsky.social VERY excited to be heading back to Stirling for the first time in TWO years!
