Holidays are great, but it’s always nice to come back home.
It doesn’t matter how good or exciting your story is, your readers won’t care unless you can also make them care about your characters. That’s why character work is so important.

This bank holiday weekend, I’m reading “The Adversary” by Emmanuel Carrère. It’s a stunning true crime mystery.
Today is #InternationalMusueumDay
One of my favourite museums to visit is the South Wales Miners Museum.

Stonehenge is aligned with sunrise on Midsummer Day and sunset on Midwinter Day. Why? That question inspired Circle of Days, my latest book.

I’m looking forward to hearing Professor Jay Parini discussing the poetry of Robert Frost tonight. My favourite of his poems is “Mending Wall”.
Why I don’t mind plot problems — in fact I like them.
The UK paperback of Circle of Days was published on 21st May – just in time for summer holidays. If you’ve taken the book away with you, I’d love to know where to.
Circle of Days is out now in paperback in India.
