On my way to today’s UK Crime Book Club Live event in Leeds, where I’m looking forward to appearing on this afternoon’s cosy crime panel 👍 Tickets at ukcrimebookclub.com

Tell you what, I had an editorial meeting earlier today that I was a little nervous about, but couldn’t have gone better. I’m as much of a “close the door and leave me alone while I work” writer as the next person, but there’s nothing quite like good, productive collaboration 🤟
