So pleased to have spent some time this afternoon with the lovely @louisatreger at @WaterstonesPicc recording a podcast for The Book Ramble Podcast. Talking about Louisa's latest book #TheDragonLady and about being a writer. Louisa has also signed copies that are on sale.

[Louisa Treger @louisatreger]

Friends, I'm excited to tell you that #TheDragonLady #audiobook releases tomorrow. You might want to buy it because the cover is lovely & it's sad but also full of love. It's about the cost of defying society, but it also has a tattoo, a lemur & a ghost.

During the years of sending my work out & getting rejected, I used to walk into bookshops & think 'I wonder if anything I write will ever be in here.' So the magic of seeing my books in a store like @Hatchards will never get old.

❤️ the fact that @TheTimes used the only known photo of Ginie's snake tattoo, cropped from their photo, but added here for you to see in all its glory... #TheDragonLady @LouisaTreger @BloomsburyBooks

‘I began to realise that secrecy was an important part of the story, raising a number of questions. Did Mugabe know about the existence of these paintings? @louisatreger on the mystery of the hidden art of Zimbabwe @thetimes @BloomsburyBooks #TheDragonLady https://t.co/NwrEjzHAEQ

Thank you @WaterstonesKR for having #TheDragonLady in your window - in such brilliant company! Delighted to spot it there on my afternoon walk.

'Her tattoo earned her the nickname Dragon Lady, tho the creature on her ankle was a snake: a savage thing, its head rearing up, jaws open, ready to strike. People whispered that it went from her ankle right the way up her thigh & only Stephen knew where it ended.'

I am bowled over by this wonderful and insightful review of #TheDragonLady. Thank you @Williams13Anne!

'It was beautiful and eerie, not like a garden at all to me. My school friends had gardens with mowed lawns and tidy hedges. This was wilderness with paths and deep shade, dense with trees, ferns and flowering creepers.'
