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!

It was a great privilege to give a talk about the Theatre Royal and Walter Scott’s dramas at the Story-Telling Centre as part of the Scottish Theatre History weekend, and to chat about it and about my book with Donald Smith afterwards.
