I’ve got loads to blog about:

– the Theakston’s Old Peculier Crime Festival in Harrogate
– being sent the UK cover of my third psychological thriller
– subconsciously following Agatha Christie around the country (which is interesting as she’s mentioned in my book…)

but there’s no time!

I’ve just returned home from a family holiday and there’s a mountain of washing to do and a small, grubby child to bathe (my child, I should add) so here’s a quick link to the video I mentioned in my last post.

It’s a roundtable discussion about writing and being a writer, filmed by HarperCollins, and debuted at BritCrime. It features me, Simon Toyne, Alex Marwood, Martyn Waites and Helen Smith.

I’ll be back soon with a longer blog post about crime festivals, book covers and stalking dead authors but, until then, enjoy the video.
