I was delighted to meet some
DI Andy Horton fans at my recent talks at Hartlepool and Whitley Bay Libraries last week and to introduce my
crime novels to some new readers who I hope will enjoy reading about the exploits of my fictional detective.

Authors spend so much time working alone with only their characters for
company that it is always good to get out and meet readers

I
met up with some stalwart fans of DI Andy Horton at Throston Grange
Library in Hartlepool on Thursday 25 April and introduced the flawed and
rugged DI to new readers. This was my third visit to libraries in
Hartlepool in the last four years and once again I enjoyed it
tremendously. Many thanks to Denise Sparrowhawk who is an ace organiser
and marketeer and to all the fantastic library staff for making this
enjoyable not only for me but for everyone who has attended these
events.
On
Friday 26 April I met up with readers in the newly opened Whitley Bay
Library. In fact it was so new that the sign was only just being
erected as I arrived. It's a fantastic library in the heart of the small
town and I was privileged to be asked to speak there. Once again I met
some true DI Horton fans and hopefully DI Horton will charm his way
into the hearts of those who are new to him.

My thanks to the staff of North Tyneside Libraries for asking me to speak and for all the superb organisation.
Happy to return to both if you'll have me.
