  1. Another sad day for booksellers. Another notch on the bedpost for Amazon. http://bit.ly/7hbimj 7:08 PM Nov 24th from TweetDeck
  2. @crimeficreader Thanks for passing this on. I've sent a message to the landlady of the Fox & Badger. I've had two very fine lunches there. 1:33 AM Nov 24th from TweetDeck in reply to crimeficreader
  3. Classic comment from daughter No.1 on using squat toilets in Borneo: 'Hey I'm getting really good at this. I can even aim.' 3:01 PM Nov 15th from TweetDeck
  4. Classic comment from princess No. 2, aged 12: 'Anyone who could teach me how to crochet is now dead.' 8:56 PM Nov 14th from TweetDeck
  5. I must be the father of daughters. I just spent an hour on YouTube trying to help my 12 yo learn how to crochet. 8:53 PM Nov 14th from TweetDeck
  6. The new novel is underway. No name yet. I managed 1000 words. From small acorns, yada, yada, yada... 2:46 AM Nov 2nd from TweetDeck
  7. @bustedflushpres My ears are burning. I'm finally home after being trapped in LA for two days after missing a connection from NY. Big storm. 1:17 AM Oct 28th from TweetDeck in reply to bustedflushpres
  8. Jetlag is the work of the devil. 5am and I've been awake 2 hours. South Africa is a memory. Dust storms in Sydney turned my plane red. 11:56 AM Oct 2nd from TweetDeck
  9. Book delivered. Two sets of editing notes - one from the US, one from the UK. Both entirely different. Who do I keep happy? 7:47 AM Aug 29th from TweetDeck
  10. @smiksa Thanks for that. Mmmmm rather disappointing about the lack of a press release. Normally the news races around the world. 1:53 AM Aug 29th from TweetDeck in reply to smiksa
  11. @smiksa No idea. I've been trying to discover the same thing. I thought Chloe would win. She had to be the hottest favourite in the field. 4:25 PM Aug 28th from TweetDeck in reply to smiksa
  12. My editor just picked up a mistake in my new m/s. Apparently 'Leisl' in the Sound of Music should be 'Liesl'. How does he know this stuff? 2:01 AM Aug 28th from TweetDeck
  13. My wife's birthday. Instead of lasting a day it's an entire festival - The Festival of Vivien - which finishes in mid-Sept. She's worth it. 1:58 AM Aug 28th from TweetDeck
  14. @david_hewson re will your title be a bestseller. Da Vinci Code has only a 34% chance of being a bestseller. He should have used BOLLOCKS. 5:12 AM Aug 25th from TweetDeck in reply to david_hewson
  15. Will your title be a bestseller? Put it to the test. http://bit.ly/pOJoL My last one SHATTER had a 63.7% chance. Mmmm. Maybe next time. 3:44 AM Aug 25th from TweetDeck
  16. @mariekehardy You poor thing. This is cold comfort but I have managed to twice lose six hours work. That's why I keep suicide pills. 9:03 PM Aug 18th from TweetDeck in reply to mariekehardy
  17. @mysterybooks Bless Linwood. My ears weren't exactly burning, although I am basking in the glow of having delivered the new book. Whew! 9:31 PM Aug 17th from TweetDeck in reply to mysterybooks
  18. 29C today in Sydney. And they call this winter! Spent the morning on the beach. The afternoon doing my final read through. Monday is D-day. 9:49 PM Aug 15th from TweetDeck
  19. @djmont Hope to see you at Bouchercon, David. 2:46 AM Aug 8th from TweetDeck in reply to djmont
  20. @bustedflushpres thank you. As I'm sitting here desperately trying to finish the next one - it's nice to feel appreciated. 2:45 AM Aug 8th from TweetDeck in reply to bustedflushpres
