It's #worldbookday so I feel compelled to write something. Every book I've ever read made me want to be an author. Books change lives.

Today, join a library, a book group or go into a bookshop, none of them will disappoint.

I've looked at a map, wouldn't it be easier if Denmark claimed Alaska?

I mean, if it were a game of Risk...

Hi Kate, I guess Google Books and Apple. Which app are you on and I'll ask my publisher to deal with it?

Who loves audiobooks? Who loves a Christmas bargain? Who wants me dripping in their ear on crime and France?
OK, forget the last bit. But get over to Audible for some deals.

Signing books in the (wild) west end. Some people are already being Christmas obnoxious. Be nice to the people that serve you in shops, bars, restaurants etc.
