This exhibition in Kirkcudbright looks amazing! The story of early 20th century queer artists. My Fairy Family: thegallovidianway.com/prideofplace... I'm so looking forward to discussing all this with @damianbarr.bsky.social soon as it ties in so well with his landmark novel The Two Roberts.

OMG wedding anniversary.

Last night's sunset was phenomenal. Bit blurry but still... #Glasgow

Monthly agent meeting and Dotty came too. @jennybrownagency.bsky.social

In other news: meetings today so I popped out to get pastries. I passed Himself's office and asked if he fancied anything. 'Yeah but no fruit.' 🤷Turns out last time I bought lemon doughnuts like a fucking health freak. 😂 Yes he's from the West Coast. 😂

I've been reading about the run up to WWII and the rise of fascism in the 1920s/30s. God, it's depressing but I suppose it's my response to what's going on a century on. Can recommend this one by @chrisbryant1962.bsky.social about queer MPs who opposed appeasement. Good morning.

We haven't been round these parts much recently so dropping in to say hello and please enjoy these images of Baillière’s Synthetic Anatomy. Published in the 1920s & a descendent of the earlier paper anatomical flap books, each section uses glassine transparent overlays. Have a good weekend!

Opening show last night at Glasgow's iconic Citizens Theatre after a 7 year refurb. The theatre is looking spectacular! So glad to have it back.

Commendably ginger - but not naked, as in Glasgow :)

The new Banksy at the Royal Courts of Justice. It has now been covered up (sic).

Gryffe Valley Book festival last weekend and it was fun to catch up with these beauties: Mairi Kidd and Zoe Venditozzi, who chaired Mairi and I brilliantly btw.

Sunday 🧵 of female adventurers: 1st Isabella Bird who wrote 18 books & travelled to US Australia Asia & Mid East. She took issue when the Times said she wore (shock) trousers to climb mountains. Always travelled armed but with apparatus to make tea & died at home packed for her next adventure. /1

27 years before I used him in the Fair Botanists, James Rocheid paid tax on hair powder. This feels so like him! Bougie from beginning to end.

They have a great offer at the Gryffe Valley Book Festival at Houston - if you buy a ticket you can bring a pal for free. This is my kind of book festival. Tix here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/mairi-kidd...

Look what arrived in the EUP office today! We're so excited to be holding these books in our hands! 😍 Meet the women who dared to defy the status quo in Women Who Dared: From the Infamous to the Forgotten. Haven't pre-ordered yet? There's still time! 👉 edin.ac/3DZZC1L @iashedinburgh.bsky.social

Entirely different Sheridan ofc. 😂 Tho I feel my life and works are also dramatic.

Secret door. Yes I'm back in Glasgow. Hi. ❤️

Explore this gift article from The New York Times. You can read it for free without a subscription. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/s...

In a 1596 pamphlet, John "Logarithms" Napier of Merchiston described various "secret inventions" such as a submarine, a mirror for burning enemy ships at any distance and and a "round metal chariot" which could move rapidly and easily while its occupants fired from within. A Death Ray and a Tank!

I'm delighted to be appearing at the Byres Road Book Festival in the lovely Hillhead Library, Glasgow, on Saturday 27 September at 3pm. Tickets are free and can be booked by following the link. Please do come along, if you can. www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/peter-ross...

Me and my cousin joking with the security guards the NatinPortrait Gallery as they search our bags. No soup in there today. 😂

Wee bird on the Regent Canal. Good morning London.

Quick thread of Golden Age crime writing ladies. My tips. First up, Margery Allingham. My fave of hers: Tiger in the Smoke also a class black and white movie about a serial killer. Her first novel was based on something told to her at a seance. She rocks. Obviously. /1

Magic hammam this morning. Turkish London is smashing it. Honestly felt so luxurious. 100% relaxed now, maybe more. 😂

The UK government will evacuate nine of the 40+ students in Gaza with scholarship at UK universities. My PhD student Shaimaa isn't included. We must now make sure they help the other students - email your MP today. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Thanks to @edbookfest.bsky.social for having me yesterday to talk about my fun and games. It was such a pleasure. ❤️ 10% of folk in the signing queue also wanted to talk about my shoes. 😂 They're so pink, though. 😂

Edinburgh, you total bastard. I forgot you never do what the weather report says till after 9am.I'm

Timeline cleanse from the Thames. Hi.
