Another week gone, but thankfully it was quite a good one. Managed to get some rather fabulous books read - go me - and also had a bit of a side trip up to Northumberland on Friday. Only an overnighter, but Mandie and I were lucky enough to be invited to attend the LJ Ross event on Holy Island, the spiritual home of the DCI Ryan series. There the author took us back through the origins of DCI Ryan and why she started to write, amongst many other topics, including where her wonderful Frankisms come from. Louise was joined by her husband James (the J in LJ) and the conversation between the two was brilliant. If you've never read one of the books you really should - and book twenty will be out next month so there are plenty of books to keep you amused.
We do love Northumberland, so any excuse to head back up north is always welcomed. The weather was atmospheric, the company wonderful. And it was amazing to bump into Susan Heads while we were there too.
