Huge thanks to @NorfolkMagazine and @CatherineLarner, for this very wonderful piece - very grateful and more than a bit flabbergasted. To write about Nelson’s county is a joy!

For Christmas, my godfather Uncle Rich got me this awesome ‘book rest and refreshment stand combo unit’ - so tonight it’s a little Guinness and the brilliant SON by Johana Gustawsson and Thomas Enger, courtesy of mighty Orenda Books! Cheers all!

Book fans in Liverpool, we've got your Monday night sorted!

Tomorrow night, the 27th, I'll be at Waterstones Liverpool chatting up a storm with the genius Stu Turton - and the last time i shared the stage with Stu, I nearly laughed myself into an accident.

Tix here!

One of the most generous writers out there is @cmacwritescrime, and he's proven it again with his thoughts on #TheTroubledDeep🤿 . Chris selflessly champions so many voices in the crime world, and is now at 'national treasure' status. Thank you man!

My lovely mum got me a ‘blind date book’ from a second hand bookshop, and I hit a bit of a jackpot with a David Baldacci! What a lovely idea this is!
