M. W. Craven

Tickets are on sale for 'Crime Day' at the East Riding Festival of Words, 27th September! Lots going on, but I'll be chatting with @mwcraven.bsky.social and Zoe Sharp, @simonmccleave.bsky.social and @carahunterbooks.bsky.social.

Link in the comments.

Next Friday (Aug 8) I’ll be running a comp to give away my one and only spare proof copy of THE FINAL VOW.

To be in with a (let’s face it, quite small chance), you’ll need to be following my Facebook page (www.facebook.com/MikeCravenAu...) by midday on Thursday (Aug 7). Apologies to those not on FB

Author @mwcraven.bsky.social joins Michael to discuss "Nobody's Hero", his captivating, thrilling, and mysterious novel from the Ben Koenig series. Fans will recognize a familiar name found within Craven's stories... Smerconish!

“The darkest wit and the blackest of humour are cleverly interwoven throughout, alongside the introduction of new characters who will bring a smile to the reader's face (Uncle Bertie will make you howl!)”

Out in three weeks 😬

Links for all THE FINAL VOW events (bar Hebden Bridge) are now live on the website. It’s unlikely any others will be added this time around because a) time constraints and b) I prefer, whenever possible, not to leave my house

I even drew you ‘nearly smiling’ wannabe artist and good pal Stephen Dunn says . . .

Out VERY soon . . .

New event alert

I’ll be doing a couple of things at the sophomore DEATH IN THE DALES in mid-October

And if you haven’t yet been to Sedbergh, I can thoroughly recommend having a pint and a pie at The Black Bull

Writing rule #1: Silence is the enemy.

Writing rule #2: If it wasn’t recorded by spiky-haired ruffians between 1977–1980, I’m not listening.
