@AdamJFarrer We loved having you! So glad you enjoyed your time in our corner of the world
Had the greatest time at @HburghBookFest this weekend. Came second in a literary quiz where I was on a team with a dog, had a packed event, sold all my books, met so many wonderful people and ate so many biscuits. An incredible literary festival. Can’t wait to come back.
What Callum said! Smashing event.
Had such an incredible time at @HburghBookFest at the weekend. One of the best going, it's wonderful. ❤️
IT’S EDITING TIME!! 😃🎞️ Having captured the 1 hour session with @ambroseparry at The Hill House (@N_T_S), it’s been decided nothing will end up on the cutting room floor! 🙌🏻 The @HburghBookFest team, have agreed to serialising the session into 6 “chapters”! @GrahamM23694298
You heard it, folks - from the star of tartan noir himself!

Last event of a fabulous @HburghBookFest weekend: @SpacemanDan13 talking to @susiesbookrevs about Dark Island, his acclaimed debut. Capped a great few days of author talks, workshops and panels for all ages. Huge thanks to all who came to talk, listen, question, and eat cake
Forgot to mention the Book Nook at @HallHelensburgh which is open week in week out whether or not the @HburghBookFest is on. All books only £1 each!
Filming day 2 of 2 for us at the @HburghBookFest DONE! ✅🎥 Brilliant “What's Hot '25” engagement session held at the @HallHelensburgh this morning! Gill Simpson and the team put on a fantastic event and the panel were an amazing wealth of “bookly-knowledge”!
Had a really lovely time @HburghBookFest today. What a smashing example of a community coming together around storytelling. Thanks to the whole team and all the readers, pitchers and bookworms who came. New friends made and writing buddies caught up. Thank you! #booktwitter
Heading off to @HburghBookFest this morning! Callum McSorley in conversation with Cailean Steed Date: 29 mar • 19:00 Location: 116 East Princes Street, Helensburgh, G84 7DQ eventbrite.co.uk/e/callum-mcsor…
Today! 💫🖤📚
A bumper day of events for Helensburgh Book Fair tomorrow - and there’s still time to snap up the last few tickets! eventbrite.co.uk/o/helensburgh-…..
Wonderful evening at the book quiz for @HburghBookFest beautiful decorations, lovely atmosphere. So good to see my books for sale. I think the team I joined came last, which sort of made it all the better.
What a wonderful evening with @ambroseparry up at Hillhouse for @HburghBookFest I didn't really chair, instead I listened; entranced. Thank you so much!
A full house for @ambroseparry at The Hill House this evening, ably chaired by @GrahamM23694298 and filmed by @PolaroidHead! You can find Ambrose Parry books for sale at the Hub all weekend, along with titles from all our fantastic authors!
