I realise I’ve done a bunch of online interviews and panels recently, so I’ve managed to herd them all into the same place on my website here, check em out.
And you could also check out my YouTube channel which has a few readings and tunes and updates.
The first book in the Skelfs trilogy is out in paperback in the US and Canada today. Fly, my pretty! Get it at your local independent bookstore or online here.
I’m delighted that A Dark Matter has been nominated by Capital Crime for their Independent Voice Book of the Year, alongside a big gang of Orenda buddies. Fight to the death, for sure.
New press shots. I hope you like this shirt, you’ll be seeing it for the next several years. Pics by Duncan McGlynn.
Absolutely thrilled that A Dark Matter has been shortlisted for the McIlvanney Prize. That’s my third shortlisting in five years. Happy boy.
The Big Chill is out today so here’s my traditional Porty Beach shot. A Dark Matter only came out 7 months ago, but it feels like a different world, not least because I suffered a stroke in March. But I feel fighting fit now and have another book in the world, so can’t complain.
You can get the book in all good bookshops, preferably independent ones, and also online here.
And I’m doing an online launch event with the awesome Val McDermid, whose great novel, Still Life, is out today too. We’re at Porty Books tonight 6pm, tickets here.
Hey, I’ve been pulled off the subs’ bench for this cracking event tomorrow night. Go to Edinburgh International Book Festival to reserve a place.
Look at this amazing gesture from Scotland Writers FC – I’m the official sponsor of the word ‘Skelf’! Put a massive grin on my face when I opened the letter. Thanks so much, gang. Find yersel’!
Always a great moment, I got my author copies in the post – sweeeeeeet.
