A bit last minute with the information here, for which my apologies. I will be appearing at Dalmuir Library on Wednesday evening, 21st May 2014. Talking toot mostly, perhaps a bit of reading and some Q&A. Or maybe interpretive dance. Kick off is 7.30pm. More details here

In celebration of all things bookish, I will be at the Aberdeen Central Library on World Book Night. There will be fun. There will be games.

After that, I will be signing books in Waterstones Cameron Toll, Edinburgh, from two until four. Those with an appreciation of Scottish geography and Edinburgh traffic will understand that I […]

Another day, another talk in a library. This time it’s Kemnay’s turn – my first foray north in a while. I’ll be talking about my books, writing, farming, the weather, world politics, pretty much anything, really. There’ll be a chance to ask me probing questions, which I will answer evasively. I might sign stuff, too. […]

I’ll be at the Dick Institute (stop sniggering!) Library in Kilmarnock, on Thursday March 6th 2014, from about half seven until half nine. There’ll be some blether, some reading from the new book, some questions to which I will attempt sensible answers, and the opportunity to buy books. I will also sign these, or anything […]

Once more aided by the inestimable Russel D McLean, I will be talking gibberish, reading gruesome extracts from my novels and generally larking about in the name of selling books. The venue? Waterstones, The Avenue Shopping Centre,  Newton Mearns. The time? Around 7.30pm, I expect. More details here.

I’ll be defacing brand new copies of The Hangman’s Song (and anything else you want to bring along) at Waterstones  in the St John’s Centre in Perth (Scotland, that is. Sorry, Australia – hoping to get out to you soon!) Saturday 1st March is the day. Come along between midday and two in the afternoon. It’s […]

Kicking off the new year of events, I’ll be talking about books and other stuff at Danderhall Library, just south of Edinburgh. Saturday February 8. Things kick off at 7 PM. Tickets are free, see the link for more details. And tell all your friends!
