So proud to be part of @Literacy_Trust on such a landmark day. While I couldn’t be at the Conference, it’s inspiring to see so many educators coming together to drive change for young people’s literacy. Here’s to the National Year of Reading 2026! #NYR2026 #LiteracyMatters

Hi @StephenKing 👋 A long shot but we are a small horror press crowdfunding for our books and wondering if you would share the above? It would mean the (spirit) world to us and help us reach our target 🖤 kickstarter.com/projects/haunt…
Galston Gateax 😂😂😂😂 @BBCRadioScot Too funny!
Fantastic evening at @PenguinUKBooks new HQ in #london to celebrate transforming the 1000th primary school library in partnership with @Literacy_Trust Great to have @ace_national & our many corporate and trusts on board as a supporter. There was cake in shape of 1000!
We're in #Puffin season in #NorthBerwick & the #ForthIslands. It comes to a close in August. But September is still a great time to explore our amazing local nature. Harbour Haven still has some availability from mid-August & into September. northberwickholidayhomes.co.uk/property/harbo…
1st visit to Pickles on Broughton Street #edinburgh last night. Nice staff, great Scottish produce. Not sure about the, what I think, was a wooden bottle opener hanging behind the bar. Won’t post a picture of it. Go see for yourself.
Gosford House just up the road from #northberwick Great example of neoclassical architecture in Scotland...and gardens for Lola.
Mornings in the garden are back. Finally.
A couple of drinks in the Marine Hotel #northberwick
