Fantastic fun chatting with ((Sara Paretsky)) & @DameDeniseMina prior to their Bloody Scotland event, streaming live online now and available on catch-up later via BloodyScotland.com - Sara has such a great sense of humour and is full of mischievous fun, as you can see below!
When worlds collide and two of the best crime writers on the planet are chatting and the need to redress the gender bias on Wikipedia comes up and my head explodes. Thx @DameDeniseMina ((Sara Paretsky)) for an amazing event! (Maybe a Bloody Scotland editathon at some point?)
Here we go! Here are Claire Malcolm and @DameDeniseMina kicking off the proceedings for the #GordonBurnPrize announcement!

Bloody Scotland
#BloodyScotland10 in Stirling. This came up in my Facebook memories. Actually, it would have been Sept 10 when the pictures were taken. The #PitchPerfect class of 2017; a picture of me in the green room with
@DameDeniseMina
and goodies bag.
Read this book from Edinburgh International Book Festival after event chaired by fab @DameDeniseMina . Maylis de Kerangal tells a story about conscript on Trans Siberian express trying to flee the horrors ahead of him. More topical than ever. Read it twice 1st time for suspense, 2nd 4 beautiful language.
