The House of Footsteps lives in paperback! I love the inverted colours on this edition. It's out 13 October, just in time for the nights drawing in and the air turning a little chilly... Oh, and what's that lurking at the back..? 🤔

Lost a 1930s gold Omega watch in the last half hour between Drummond Place and Laurieston Place, Edinburgh. Perhaps on @on_lothianbuses 27 calling at Laurieston Place 13.15ish. Initials on back. Given to me by someone long gone. Please retweet.

My brother's book's out today! Spooky ghostly goings on set in the Borders. Couldn't be more proud. Off to @ToppingsEdin later to buy myself a copy and see how much has changed since the draft I read :)
