I feel like it’s going to be a good evening. 😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 25/03/2026

Right, well this made my morning :) So good to see people still enjoying Troublemaker nearly a year after it hit shelves...#booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

Heading home after a bloody awesome @baytales.bsky.social festival. And as terrifying as it was Noir At The Bar was one epic night. 😁 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

A fab night talking all things Troublemaker - and spilling a few book two secrets - at Northfields Library in Ealing. Thanks to everyone who came and to the lovely folks there for having me! #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

#TOTP tonight reminding me that the New Radicals had a huge hit with You Get What You Give (aka one of the best songs of the 90s), followed up with an awesome album, announced a show, cancelled the show and split up in the course of a few months. 😁 I had tickets for that gig too 😳

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 31/01/2026

So excited to be heading to Northfields Library in Ealing next month to talk all things Troublemaker (and slip a few clues in about book two!) Ticket info is below if you want to come along and watch me in action 😁 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

No of course I didn’t find #thetraitors finale unbearably tense, whatever gave you that idea? 😳🤣

Last Saturday: living it up on my holidays, flying business class, staying in a lovely hotel, eating pizza and sipping cocktails and generally living it up. This Saturday: sitting at home in my pyjamas trying to guess the identity of a singing sloth. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 #maskedsinger

Nothing says spirit of Christmas quite like trawling through four shops at 5pm on Christmas Eve for a last minute pack of mini mince pies 😁 Consider the festive season saved.

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

The irony that I am watching Robin Beck sing Coke anthem The First Time on #TOTP 1988 while sipping my beverage of choice has not been lost on me. 😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

Have an author Christmas party straight from work tonight so havedressed up, just a little. By 8.16am my belt had snapped off and had already trodden on my skirt hem approximately eight times 🤦🏻‍♀️ #authorlife

Oh and The Rasmus did one of my favourite ever songs because of course they did. 😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Daughter and I wenr to see The Rasmus tonight (who were great, of course) and bumped into Lee Jennings, lead singer of support act The Funeral Portrait, by the merch stand. Photo had to be done. Right after he’d used Emily as an armrest. 😁 #gig #metal

2025. Had a book published, wrote a couple more books. Might have listened to Fannybaws a little too often. 😁 #spotifywrapped

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

A #WIP you say? I couldn't possibly comment. Anyway. 6,000 words down, only another 452,675 to go :) #booksky

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

Things I did in 2025: published a book, wrote books, listened to Revery by Electric Callboy once or twice.😀. #spotifywrapped

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 27/11/2025

Also tonight I FINALLY got to see #bloodywood, who I missed earlier in the year because they played the day before Troublemaker was published (so I was a little busy!). Worth the wait however 😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 27/11/2025

#halestorm ate and left no crumbs (as the young folk say) at the O2 tonight :)

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 12/11/2025

#Electriccallboy, you made the 742 mile round trip to Ally Pally and that bit where we got dumped in the middle of nowhere by that abruptly terminating bus afterwards worth every minute. One of my favourite gigs of the year 😁😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 02/11/2025

#gogolbordello were as incredible as ever. It may however take me several days to recover. 😁 #livemusic

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 01/11/2025

#gogolbordello I am coming for ya. Let’s see if I look this tidy and pristine by the end of the gig 🤣🤣 #livemusic

Daughter this morning: 'Right, I need to lock in, I have loads of uni work to get done, no interruptions.' One hour later she sends me this: 😂

Battle Beast were incredible at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire tonight (as were support acts Dominum and Majestica). Now wondering if I should get something like this for my work Christmas party 😁 #gig #metal

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 21/10/2025

Props to @almostwittylondon.bsky.social for digging up the first-ever long form feature I ever wrote for Empire - about Pocahontas - plus as an added bonus check out my name in the masthead! But how long before someone unearths my four star review of Multiplicity? 😁 #film #filmwriter

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 19/10/2025

I wholeheartedly approve of this new make-up range I found in Superdrug. And yes, of course I had to buy some. 😁 #troublemaker #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 18/10/2025

A fab night this week watching Italy's self-confessed 'dwarf metal' band Wind Rose sing about digging holes and the like. Probably one of my favourite gigs of the year so far, except there's more where that one came from. 🤘 #gig #livemusic #metal #windrose

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 18/10/2025

Having a night off from editing to go and watch Italian power metal????? Whatever gave you that idea? #metal 😁🤘🏻

Right, nobody talk to me for the next hour. 😁

Since I've been asked quite a few times since the Troublemaker buddy read if I'm writing another book, I give you Exhibit A. And in answer to the question 'but Caroline, when are you going to write something nice?' I say: 'But where would the fun be in that?????' #booksky

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

Spotted this on the Tube to work this morning and I have so many questions. Does the Tube map go on all night long? Is the map dancing on the ceiling of the Circle Line? Damned if I know. 😆

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 04/10/2025

Fellow #InsideNo9 devotees, I just found this on the pavement outside my flat and am now wondering if I should attempt to locate the owner. 😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

Not sure my shirt is loud enough for a Tuesday. 😁

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

Happy author-versary to me, six months today since Troublemaker was published. Suffice to say it’s been quite the ride 😁 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 24/09/2025

So even though the Troublemaker buddy read isn't meant to finish till today it seems a few people enjoyed it so much they finished it already 😮so fab to see so many folk taking part and enjoying it! #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

CR Westbrook @cazzawrites.bsky.social · 09/09/2025

The @chiswickbookfest.bsky.social Local Authors' Showcase tomorrow night is now sold out! If you are coming along, should point out I'm on first, Meaning I get to be the first actual author to speak at this year's festival. Bit scared now actually 😆 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

When your carefully curated Spotify playlist based on your recent listening sticks in a random 80s anomaly to see if you’re paying attention 😁 #spotify #playlist
