Love that I live round the corner from this crazy, beautiful palace. It’s stunning at all times of day and night, but particularly lovely this morning.

ORIGINAL SINS - out now in paperback - is listed in the New York Times’ thrillers & mysteries - after being a pick of the week on publication last year!

Almost 6 weeks sober so will celebrate with a sparkling elderflower 🍎 ❀️ 🍎

Our work has been stolen & used for the profit of a mega corporation.

The creative industries in the UK alone are worth 125 billion a year - but their value in wellbeing, happiness, inspiration & education is far greater.

We will be a much poorer country without them #dothewritething

Back home from India & on a journey of another kind - time for a bit of a mind/body cleanse, so am coming off the booze for a while. But there’s so much else to enjoy in my fabulous, crazy little corner of the world, so although it’s a big, slightly intimidating change I’m here for it!

Getting prepped for my upcoming historical (hysterical?) tour of Kolkata & Assam with @radiomukhers.bsky.social - and already irritated as I have to get up and write, when I want to stay in bed and continue reading… this is brilliant!!

Happy new year people!
Hope 2025 brings you good things.

According to my phone I was still ringing the new year in at 1.30am dancing to Insomnia by Faithless - DJ’d by the actual FAITHLESS! 😍

So am starting 2025 in my PJs with a Lord of the Rings epic & a sausage sandwich

A little note to say a MASSIVE thank you to all the readers, booksellers, reviewers & bloggers who’ve supported my books this year. It’s hugely appreciated

Mostly paved paths, very little mud, just the odd puddle - several people in chairs last night all seemed to be getting around fine

It’s absolutely beautiful

Our annual pilgrimage to Glow Wild at Wakehurst Place. As magical as ever. Cocoons of light, ghost figures in misty groves, trees that change seasons in a moment, a dragon in a sea of fire, roots sparkling down into dark dells, whisper of birds & water.
