A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.

Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

Still trying to kid myself that spring is nearly here as I start research for what may be my next book - it's going to be a tough one so I need to think about it for a while.

A photo of Spring for those of you who are wondering if it is ever going to arrive. Take heart, it is only around the corner.

My heart goes out to those fighting for human rights in Iran. Many are so young. If this repressive regime is quickly overthrown, those murdered by the state will not have died completely in vain. Thinking of Erfan Soltani - an innocent young man facing the death sentence tomorrow.

As a reward for getting the first draft of my new novel to my editor I painted the feature wall in my study. New book coming in 2026!!

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 15:
Don’t be a control freak. Give your characters agency. If they can surprise you, ambush you, knock you off balance, it means you’ve made them come to life. Follow them. See what they do.

New minimum wage of £12.71 an hour for over 21s. I wonder if this rate also applies to authors? 😂

When your 90 year old dad takes a great photo at Köln Hauptbahnhof you just have to post it.

Loved the Oscar Wilde quote read out at the start of Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction ceremony this evening:

“If you cannot write well, you cannot think well; if you cannot think well, others will do your thinking for you.”

Yay books!
