Earlier this month I was invited to go speak with the prisoners at HMP Berwyn in Wrexham. It was an amazing experience and the men were all very knowledgable and engaging. Thanks to HMP Berwyn for getting in touch, was great! #hmpberwyn #wrexham #wherethefolk

Suggestions on how to celebrate include Russell-themed parties and buying books written by Russells, apparently.... #nationalrussellday #russell #wherethefolk

Looks like it's gonna be all about cowboys for a good while now after @maddun_dnb let me borrow his favourite book, Larry McMurtry's (author of 'Brokeback Mountain') 800+ pages long 'Lonesome Dove'. #lonesomedove #larrymcmurtry #longbooks #bookrecommendations

When you give an author some gift vouchers as an early Christmas present to "buy new clothes" and he comes home with these.. 😬 question now is, where should I begin..? #bookrecommendation #whichbooktoread #toreadlist
