Honoured to talk about writing to fundraise for Manorlands Hospice
Which supports those facing death or grief. I raffled the chance to have the winner's name in my next book. The winner chose to be a baddie, so watch this space!!!!

Wonderful dance production Bradford Arts Centre of ASTITVA by Jaivant Patel exploring how British Indian gay men navigate sexuality, culture and love.
Beautifully choreographed and poignant, hopeful and Joyful in equal measure.

Many thanks to all the librarians at Hebden Bridge @calderdale.bsky.social for this magnificent display of Bluemoose authors with a nod to the upcoming @bbc 6 part b series of Leonard and Hungry Paul by @ronanhession.bsky.social . Brilliant.

2/2 Chilling, thought provoking & utterly believable, Abdullah takes the reader to the heart of community dynamics through a skillful part legal, part social commentary, part analysis in a wholly believable fictional crime thriller.
was moved to tears, rage & despair at intervals throughout.

1/2 What Happens In The Dark @kiaabdullah.bsky.social
A well thought out, authentically written, challenging & completely relevant take on misogyny, coercive control, domestic abuse, disempowered groups & current society.

Beginning my journey back home after a fabulous time Bloody Scotland . I'll start the photo dump with a wee video of one of my fave Scottish songs being played at The Golden Lion on Friday. Not crime fiction related, but still nice

Sometimes I just crave the solitude of reading. It's that feeling of being wholly absorbed in someone else's life. Of feeling encapsulated in warm coziness. Of relaxing & letting your mind settle away from the noise of 'life'.

It was Raksha Bandhan at the weekend. On Sunday we spent the day with some of Nilesh sisters at Windermere. Raksha Bandhan is all about love & connecting with family. I always tie a Rakhi round my kids, there partners and Nilesh wrist to symbolize my love and hopes for them for the future.

My fave newspaper The Sunday Post has described the audio version of Deadly Reckoning as 'GRIPPING' with ‘HARD HITTING CRIME & TEAR JERKERS’. Absolutely thrilled with this. Thank you! Credit to the wonderful narrator Blythe Jandoo @lorellabelliagency.bsky.social @hqstories.bsky.social
