Everything about becoming a writer ✍️ At this moment, I’m only a ghost 👻 because nobody knows me. But that’s not what a “Ghostwriter” is, is it? 😁

@StephenKing Dear Mr King,

members of the canine minority love short tails, but this time you lost me on page 1. Couldn’t make head nor tail of it.

I didn’t get Fairy Tail either - they don’t have tails. Authors shouldn’t skimp on research.

Love the rest of your books,
Ebenezer Poodle

Book tokens! As if you need another reason to love this unique book shop. So glad I stumbled upon it last Saturday & Niall, Andrew and Tim explained it all to my overwhelmed mind. Great book tips, guys- thanks and I will see you again

[The Book Dragon UK @TheBookDragonU1]

I am overjoyed to announce that The Book Dragon is now an official member of the National Book Token scheme!!
From Monday 13th March 2023 we will be officially stocking National Book Tokens and also accepting National Book Tokens for all of our Authors Books.

Look! There I am! Near the bar 😊👋 Hope to see you again, Ian, and have fun in Manchester

[Ian Rankin @Beathhigh]

Busy lunchtime event in Lytham thanks to @PlackittBooth booksellers. Onwards to Manchester. The weather remains dreich…

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@PlackittBooth ‘s very cool #AHeartFullOfHeadstones lunch event in Lytham was packed (even if in pic #1 it looks like Ian & I were alone). Pic #2 shows the scrum for the signing right after @Beathhigh ‘s cracking talk. Now it’s me & the dog vs. the new #rebus - thanks all!

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@Beathhigh Don’t know how you fit everything into your schedule. Have a safe journey and I look forward to seeing you in Lytham

My @peterjamesuk #DeadSimple first edition is defective 😭😭😭 Between page 1 and p114 the van changes from green to white! Either that or they forgot the respray scene in the @itvhub episode… If Peter hadn’t written a fab dedication in my #PictureYouDead I’d be heartbroken 💔

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

So sad I’m going to miss @peterjamesuk in Lytham. I wish everyone a great time tomorrow at @PlackittBooth

@realeverywriter That’s how I wound up with my first wife. But when I gave her all the riches, the curse was lifted 😂😂😂

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@MyBookCushion On this planet, so please let’s all look after it

[My Book Cushion @MyBookCushion]

Where is your favourite place to read?🤔📚

#Bookblogger #amwriting #amreading

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@SEvanTownsend #amwritingslowly too. We’ll get there. Who cares if Dean Koontz (replace with speedy author to suit your taste) can write 17 books a year: think “Achilles vs. Tortoise”

@AMaltmanWrites @JeffSBrayAuthor Haha. 4 of my dogs are fine with thunder, but the 5th would be on my lap, expecting me to make it stop. No thunder, please

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@JeffSBrayAuthor Less thunder and swap the tin roof for a tent and I’m there. It was a dark and stormy night… no, let’s not go there 😬😬😬

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

Got my ticket and I am enjoying my last few weeks of living in a world with a #Rebus book I haven’t read yet. A world in which I’ve read them all of @Beathhigh ‘s books is arguably richer but the joyful anticipation gives me a buzz 🐝

[Ian Rankin @Beathhigh]

A real-life book tour forsooth!

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

#DeadMansGrave should have been impossible to beat, but @neillancaster66 did it with #TheBloodTide. I wasn’t expecting… that, or that or that. Looking forward to Book3 in September

@authorrochelle Sounds interesting. I’m off to Pontefract tomorrow, so will keep an eye out for poor Richard II

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@Beathhigh Is there a bad way to stay in a museum. Maybe if you were Ben Stiller…

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

@JamesMi45735281 Because singing just isn’t as acceptable at 4am

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

Chapter 7 is finished at last.

I glance at the clock. “04:54”.

My alarm shrieks in the dark.

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

Awake. My phone in my sleep drunk fist shows “04:54”.

Overslept! Why hasn’t the alarm gone off? Did I turn it off? As I think this…

My alarm shrieks in the dark.

I dab the tiny “Stop” button. The clock reads “04:00”. I must have dreamt the first awakening.

[Rupert Writer @PRuprt]

And this time I’ve cracked it. Absolutely smashed it.

I review the perfect result. The snappy dialog makes even me laugh. Characters leap from the page with personality, motivation and history. Each detail convinces. Prose like Stephen King in his prime.
