They’re here in the thousands. The town will be overrun. There will be no escaping them.
No not the seagulls, not the day trippers … the Filey Lit Fest programmes have arrived.
#filey#yorkshirecoast
A great day @Fileyliteratur1 😊 - excellent talks by @davidpendleton0 and @AdamJFarrer and a packed audience for my talk on #Butlins. Picked up some excellent coasty books to add to my shelves - and check out Mike Smylie's mobile kipper smokery 🐟
Join me 4pm today at @Fileyliteratur1 for a talk on my cosy crimes published by @headlinepg & set in Scarborough. They were shortlisted in Dead Good Readers' Awards for best new crime series with Richard Osman & Val McDermid at Harrogate crime festival. #scarborough#cosycrime
Tomorrow from 10am-4pm call in at Filey Distillery on West Rd to see Mike's Amazing Travelling Kipperhouse and exhibition. Kippers on sale and there's a pop up bar!
Mike will be talking about his book The Silver Darlings at 2pm. Free event.
On May 13th I’ll be at Filey Literature Festival, and my mum will be in the audience. She’s a central part of Cold Fish Soup and this will be the first time she’s attended one of my events, so it means a lot to have her there.
See you at the Evron Centre, Filey. 1pm. Free entry.
It's been described as if 'Portillo has been in the pub'. @davidpendleton0's love letter to the Thames-Clyde Express is available for pre-order at a special price.

We love supporting coastal authors. @flaming_nora is bringing a bit of Foul Play to the Evron Centre.
Followed by pop-up ghost stories, bring your own, make one up, read your favourite. Almost the festival after-party.
“Oh! it is absurd to have a hard-and-fast rule about what one should read and what one shouldn't. More than half of modern culture depends on what one shouldn't read.”
I’m featured in the @yorkshirepost today, highlighting Cold Fish Soup and my upcoming events at @Fileyliteratur1 and @UoYEnglish Also, it cannot go without comment, wearing a gold suit while lolling about in the North Sea.
