I'm delighted to have been invited to speak on September 9th at this lovely festival in Tain - really looking forward to it, and hoping to see a few Highland friends there too!

It was a joy to be invited to take part in the prestigious Borders book Festival in Melrose this year. Such a warm welcome and wonderful atmosphere. I had a great crowd for my event and was interviewed by the lovely Ann Landmann - lots of brilliant questions too!

Great event the wonderful Heron and Willow in Jedburgh. Lovely crowd and such a warm welcome from Dean, who asked brilliant questions about The Real Mackay!

It was a great privilege to interview award-winning author Shona Maclean at Wigtown Spring Book weekend - standing room only! She gave us such fascinating insight on how she's written so much brilliant historical fiction, and also a tantalising taste of what's coming soon !

Later that day I was deli...

What an absolute joy it was to spend the whole afternoon with this brilliant book club in Fife talking about The Real Mackay! Everyone had read it so there were some really interesting and insightful comments - the best kind of day!
