A busy few weeks in my #writerslife culminating in (amongst other things) lots of exciting additions to the diary. Looking forward to catching up with friends, readers and crime fiction fans. Why not sign up for my newsletter to ensure you don’t miss out jamesmurphywriter.org

A cracking start to Saturday sees a sneak peak at the tracklist and rear cover art for the upcoming Pulp album. One very excited fan this morning. Now, if only I could persuade Mrs M that our summer hol plans should include 2 nights at the Hollywood Bowl 🤩😂

Fabulous #bookpost today from an amazing friend who just so happens to be one of the most talented writers I know. Can’t wait to crack the spine on this one come the weekend @kellycrimebooks 📚🤩

Life with Mrs M is not short of adventures. Here’s the latest. Full disclosure, I had more of the singles than she had 😂😂😂😂

I had a great time talking all things crime fiction writing with the guys at Write Club. Have a listen here if you’d like rss.com/podcasts/write…

It was great to chat with the guys at Writers Magazine Online about my work and how it has so often linked with music writers-online.co.uk/how-to-write/c…

It’s always lovely to see your books being enjoyed. Better still to see one being enjoyed just the way you think it should be. In a cosy nook by a roaring fire with a warming, potent drink and in the company of a much loved pet.

When #eastersunday happens to coincide with a football #supersunday the roast lamb dinner goes on hold (until tomorrow) in the Murphy household. Instead I went rogue and unleashed my inner #pizzapunk with some scratch made to order. They went down a treat with the family 🐣🤩🍕

What an amazingly Pulp and I’m with Pulp filled time ahead, and not long to wait now 🤩🤩🤩

I’ve been dying to get hold of some Snow Patrol hot sauce for a while now. Couldn’t resist the photo op with another fiery product associated with the band that would be a perfect accompaniment to a chill(i) sunny evening in the garden, and just £0.99 too 📚🔪🩸🌶️🔥

This is sure to be a highlight of #nationalcrimereadingmonth 📚🤩 Two amazing panels (admittedly I’m biased) and a chance to #PickUpAPageTurner 🔪🩸☘️ eventbrite.ie/o/the-secret-b…

Tickets for both events in our Crime@7Bistro have been absolutely flying out. Still some limited spaces available. A brilliant afternoon in prospect. Coffee and crime writers, what’s not to love 📚🔪🩸☘️🤩 eventbrite.com/o/39757829213

Look who I met today! I went to the SecretBookshelf event and met James Murphy Thriller Writer Callum McSorley and Colin Bateman at their panel and it was excellent! 🤩Also picked up copies Squeaky Clean and Write Me a Murder and How to be Dead! Thank you for signing them for me! ☺️☺️

It was lovely to chat to you and I’m delighted you enjoyed the event. Hope you enjoy your latest reads 🤩

Really looking forward to being part of the festival this year. An interesting and no doubt craic filled discussion featuring a murder of crime writers including Sharon Dempsey, Phillip Jordan and of course yours truly 📚🔪🩸☘️🤩 feilebelfast.com

So glad you enjoyed the session 😊
