I’m delighted that THE SINISTER BOOKSELLERS OF BATH is a finalist for the Lodestar Award, in very good company!

I fly home tonight. This morning I visited an important site featured in THE LEFT-HANDED BOOKSELLERS OF LONDON.

Garth Nix : Die magischen Buchhändler von London 02 (Rezensent Carsten Kuhr): Unterhaltsame Lektüre der temporeichen Art, die das Potenzial hätte, in den nächsten Bänden vielleicht noch draufzusatteln. Penhaligon Verlag Hier mehr: schreiblust-leselust.de/garth-nix-die-…

Last Monday night I rehearsed my fearful looming shadow attack with a friend outside Edinburgh Castle.

Walked (scrambled a little) up to Arthur’s Seat to see the sunrise this morning and the wonderful vista of Edinburgh laid out before me 😂 (still beautiful though)

Off to Edinburgh now, to do some research. And surprised to see, completely at random, another GollanczFest author guest!

Made this fan piece of @Garthnix's Sabriel for a dear friend's birthday.

Hello London! It’s good to be back. I’m looking forward to GollanczFest on Saturday.

I'm very pleased to be participating in an event at Sydney Writers Festival on 23rd May at 6pm, with Samantha Shannon (Updates Only) and Shelley Parker-Chan, moderated by Aimée Lindforff. (It's always very good to see fantasy writers on the main program.)
