My book hasn't won any awards. It hasn't even sold very many copies. But when I get a hand written letter through the post like this, it feels like the most successful book in the world ❤️

Bit overwhelmed to see my book in a real life actual bookshop. For the first time (thanks Covid). And in Scotland! @WaterstonesOban

This tweet from my publisher makes me VERY happy indeed!
November was of course a great month for future travel planning/dreaming. May I, ahem, suggest that January is even better and therefore a wonderful month for clicking the link below to buy Scotland Beyond the Bagpipes 😉

I'll send a set of these new Letters of Note books to one person who retweets this. Randomly chosen. You have 24hrs to take part. I'll sign them unless told otherwise, & I'll write the winner a letter unless told otherwise. Keep washing your hands. Stay at home. We can do this x
