A girl should have her Scottish castle even if it's just a ruin with a view. 😉 #Scotland #Scottishcastle #Aberdeenshire #worthwhile

I've written a funny blog piece about living in Greece at Christmas. What happens when you're seeking a different (reflective) experience, but your eccentric landlords go full-festive. #Greece #odyssey #mani #peloponnese #placeinthesun #funnytales #Greek #memoirs
Funny Christmas wellies decorated for the season. Marjory, Jim and their terrier Wallace outside their first rented house in rural Greece.View from another house over the top of olive groves towards the wide Messinian Bay under a dazzling rainblow.Wallace the Jack Russell terrier decked out for Christmas with ribbons and festive socks.

The Greek Proposal, romantic suspense with a WW2 mystery set on a gorgeous olive grove high above the sea. The story came to me during a year in this region, on a long Greek sabbatical with my husband and terrier Wallace. "A masterful piece of storytelling." A heartfelt love story". 5* reviews.

Wild, remote Loch Rannoch in Perthshire. A peaceful place that never messes with your head, only your curly hair! #perthshire #scotland #Scheihallion #lochs #walking

This is what a book swap outpost looks like on #Balmoral Estate #Aberdeenshire I hear that King Charles was unwilling to scrap the old red box so he said, “Let them all have books!” And so we do. Books with a view. And it’s jolly good. #scotland #cairngormsnationalpark #lochnagar #booksky

My latest novel The Greek Proposal, was inspired by a year living in lovely #Koroni southern #Greece. Two writers and 1 crazy terrier #Wallace So it's an authentic view of life there beneath the gripping narrative. #romanticsuspense mybook.to/nzKsPM #booksky #Greekbooks @tripfiction.bsky.social
