Writer friends… I’m writing a piece for The Times about CJ Sansom -about his influence on other writers and place in the historical crime world. Please DM me with any thoughts.. I know he was a huge inspiration for many….

Amid the kerfuffle with the broken finger, I left the book I was reading at a friend's house. So glad to be reunited today 🎉@EmilyHthinks #amreading #amwriting
A year ago today, I had the great pleasure of signing copies of #DeadInTheWater (Frank Merlin 5) at the Hockessin BookShelf, a wonderful independent bookshop just outside Wilmington, Delaware. #historicalcrime #WW2 #FrankMerlin
Essential reading for all readers, writers, and all of us who say we value literature. What does this mean, in really precise terms? We all need to know this. (note, this doesn't include any editing, which here is in-house, and also doesn't include labour, which is substantial)

Books people! What are the most exciting books being published from June-Dec this year? Putting together a document.
@JohannaTC Another early one but A Poisoner's Tale by @cathrynkemp out in July is gruesomely good - inspired by a real life woman in Italy who made poisons to kill husbands of desperate wives.
I wrote a list of my favourite novels of 2024 so far and - unusually - they are almost all by men. Clearly men are still writing novels and thriving. What are your favourite 2024 novels?
Two great pieces of writing advice I've received from wise women: a story is long as it needs to be, even if that is long. Efficiency is the enemy of art. Holding both close. #amwriting #HistoricalFiction #WritingCommunity
