Going on tour for two weeks involves SERIOUS prep.

I just tried to use cash in London. Not just any cash, but a Gibraltan ten pound note. The fact it's Gibraltan wasn't the issue, cash itself was. The server looked at me like I was Doctor Who arrived from a previous century.

Death and Ooh La La is shaping up nicely, but I decided chapter 8 needed a rework and made some notes. That said, if anyone can enlighten me on what the hell 'Daphne' refers to, I'd be grateful. PS Tried to blur the photo, couldn't work it out.

I normally dress up for plot planning days, but it's now stoopid hot.

Many thanks to the lovely people at @waterstones_northallerton I'm very proud of my Lombard books and to be compared to Morse, who was the inspiration, means a lot.

I'm not going to lie, the Kindle Private Investigator charts have blown me away this morning! Thanks to everyone who has bought them so far. I'm going to have a sit down now.

Branded home office studio for a couple of interviews this morning. I've even shaved my ears.

If I was ever tempted to get back on the road, the road reminded me today that it would be the decision of an absolute arsehead. Won't make it home tonight. So, a pint and Madness After Midnight by Jack Glicco.

On my way to London for awards hosting duties at The Grosvenor. The autocue will be updated regularly for football commentary then relayed by me to about 800 engineers. I think this is probably the best way to take in tonight's match.

Just treated myself to a ticket for the cricket on Thursday at the Oval. Not going clubbing after though, the curfew will be respected.

I'm very excited about this, I just hide it well that's all.

Really chuffed with the reaction to Death & Déja Vù. And though I know this is rampant self-regard, let's be honest I'm trying to sell books here. #author

Very pleased to announce that the audiobook for Death and Déja Vù is now available for pre-order. It is my homage to the films of #agathachristie books, but jaysus, my Irish accent has to be heard to be believed. #audiobook

I see Farage was saying Keir Starmer is Reform's greatest asset. I think that's being rather ungratefeful towards Vladimir Putin, considering the money and resources the latter has channeled their way.

My preferred AI metaphor is actually Asbestos. - Seemingly magical properties - Developed and experimented with to make endless products - Poisoned countless communities in it's creation - Everything it was used for eventually becomes a toxic hazard to mitigate & it's in the fucking walls now

Processed some more from our bumper crop of asparagus. Turns out we now have asparagus beetle. Never heard of it before. Why does everything have to have a bastard? (That may become a book title.)

Yes, Monsieur So British - Between Two Merdes (working title) has reached the editing stage. Out June 2027.

Huge thanks to everyone who's pre-ordered Death & Déja Vu so far. It's two months until release day and it's already showing sharp elbows.

As an author, I'm often asked where I get my ideas from. Well, on this morning's dog walk in the middle of the Loire Valley I managed to get surrounded by the French Foreign Legion, so there's that.

This haunted look you see here is that of an author recording his own audiobook, regretting the decision to have a main character who is Irish. #accentchallenge

Just less than 24 hours in London: a radio show, book signings and book buyings. Three more hours and I'll be home.

I had an RA flare up yesterday so I couldn't walk, as a result you get this self-fluffing post. It's nearly five years since Death & Croissants was published, still in the charts, still keeping good company. Thank you everyone. #author

It's #worldbookday so I feel compelled to write something. Every book I've ever read made me want to be an author. Books change lives. Today, join a library, a book group or go into a bookshop, none of them will disappoint.

This is everything it should be - meticulously researched, deeply thought out, uncomfortably probing, scrupulously fair, AND ALSO outrageously entertaining. This is how progressives should tell stories. An hour flew by.
