I can now confirm the details of my appearance at the Inverness Book Festival next month – the unmissable date for your diary is Wednesday 10 August at 5pm in the OneTouch Theatre at Eden Court.  Full details including online ticket booking are here on the book festival website.

I’m really chuffed and excited to be appearing.  It’s the first time I’ll have done a book festival, but am looking forward to it and am already working on what I’m going to be doing.  It won’t just be a simple book reading, though.  I’ll be in conversation with local author, publican and man-about-town Kit Fraser and – to make the ticket price all the more worthwhile – I’ll be doing a few extra bits and pieces, hopefully giving more of a back story to the mission and talking about some of the adventures that came after Up The Creek Without a Mullet (which will feature in the sequel).

If you can make it, please do come along.  It would be lovely to have a good crowd along to support our local book festival.  To my shame I’ve never been along to any of the festival in the past – things have always tended to get in the way – but this year I am hoping to get to one or two other events as well.  It’s an exciting line up and a privilege to be a part of it.
