I have returned from my two week residency at Cove Park with lots written and batteries recharged.

It was a real privilege to stay in such an incredible and beautiful place. Endlessly inspiring and miraculously peaceful. (The pictures don’t do it justice!)

I owe a massive thanks to Alexia Holt, Alex Marrs and the whole Cove Park team for a brilliant time, and their Argyll Patron who funds the Loch Long Crime Writing Residency. (Loch) Long may it continue!

It was also lovely to be around some amazing artists from all over the world. (Also, Hank the dog.)

Cheers!
