@tvukzone It’s such a shame the BBC doesn’t want to continue with BTC which was so loved by viewers. It was the only show on UK mainstream TV dedicated to reading and the celebration of books… But fear not! we’re doing #BetweenTheCovers Live + talking to other channels + sponsors so🤞

Very authory day yesterday, giving a talk at the @OpenUniversity symposium on writing place in fiction at the v imposing Senate House. Then off to @Hatchards summer party where I completely failed to take any photos but did nearly spill champagne on William Dalrymple and wore these rather splendid shoes. So that’s all right then. Thank you all for having me!
