#TheSnowmanCode is out in the UK this week and I was lucky enough to strike gold with it twice. Working with the world class team @HarperCollinsCh has been an absolute joy and the art by @reggiebrownart is simply beyond anything I could have dreamed of - I mean, just look at it!

@marksilvermanmd Thank you!

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

@marksilvermanmd I appreciated your expert input! Bit mortified that I got that wrong (though in fairness so did my medical friends that proofread.) All more proof that yours is the most complex specialty and should really be left to the experts!

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

@marksilvermanmd Thank you, yes. A couple of other readers also pointed this out and it is being corrected in future editions. Med school was a long time ago and I think I only ever saw one insulinoma in the wild. Mea culpa.

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

@AFictionalHubb1 Likewise!

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

Okay, nature, you’ve made your point.

@CannyFuturist Frogs I can live with! Expecting a sharknado at this point…

I've always been fascinated by what previous generations did in the same buildings we live in today. This is what my friend @TheSimonBot found out...

Following @NOAA like all good nerds here in LA, and loving how relaxed experts can be. A tornado or two indeed. #HurricaneHilary

@CordSchmelzle Vielen Dank! Ich freue mich, dass es Ihnen gefallen hat.

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

@AFictionalHubb1 True! But this was before they had sunblock, so he should at least have been a handsomely-wizened old 25 here.

Hanoverian propaganda! The lad who was born to be King was brought up in Italy, so no way was he as pale as the rest of us. #Scotland

@Cekent Such a horrific case. Those poor families. I've just been reading how a senior doctor suspected something early on but management refused to acknowledge the possibility.. That is a feature of several historic cases of healthcare murder too. So grim.

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

@JamesMylet Thank you! Made my day for sure (and I swear it is from a genuine reader in the wild!)

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

Okay dear friends, many of you have been kind enough to read my book and I am grateful. HOWEVER! The wonderful Aline has reset the bar and you all now have to read it twice too. Thank you.

[Simon Stephenson @TheSimonBot]

@philip_1966 This is also a more than acceptable approach! (Although just remind me and next time I will send you an unedited proof - you have earned it!)
