Revealing the beautiful theatrical cover for #TheNightingaleofCoventGarden which I co-wrote as #LilaCain with Marcia Hutchinson @marciahut @Marciathewriter as a sequel to our novel #TheBlackbirdsofSGiles published in 2024

#TheLastSecretofWickhamGrange by #ZoeManlow is a fabulous debut - beautifully written & expertly plotted. When Caroline inherits an old house she also inherits elderly sitting tenants & a deadly secret from the long frozen winter of 1947.

No need for a finger up the bum - a simple PSA blood test is all you need to check for the early signs of Prostate Cancer.
Not all pricks are unbearable, @piersmorgan.

So sad to hear that Jilly is no longer with us. A unique eye on middle England in love, lust and rivalry. In life, super warm hearted and supportive of other authors. Nobody did it better ❤️

My thoughts about CONTEST.
This is the first video in a series I’m doing about my books, how I write them, and even receiving criticism about my work.

Congratulations to Adam Randall on his first #Emmy win.
ALT From Slow Horses. Jack Lowden as River Cartwright and Gary Oldman as Jackson Lamb sit next to each other. Jack glances over at Gary, who is looking straight ahead with a serious expression on his face. Text on image indicates that Slow Horses has won an Emmy for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series.
