How Scotland inspires crime writers

I am looking forward to featuring in this event as part of Kirkcudbright Book Week:

Tuesday February 28 Free on-line event Talking Of Crime…2pm

A  Zoom event featuring crime writers from around Scotland, who will take readers on a tour of the country with each author explaining what effect the Scottish location of their books offers them as writers. Audience members will then be able to ask questions.

Writers taking part alongside myself include other members of the Crime Writers’ Association’s Scottish Chapter and those contributing include Allan Martin, Simpson Grears, Inga Vesper, Margaret Kirk, Gordon Brown and Marsali Taylor. To register for the Zoom session, please contact me at deangriss@btinternet.com
