I had such a good time at the International Agatha Christie Festival in Torquay this year – so many great talks and friendly audiences. I enjoyed giving my talk on the Tuesday, and am pleased to say that I’ll be giving it again – this time in Southampton, on 10 October. You can book your free ticket here.

A personal highlight was hosting the Greenway dinner on Christie’s birthday, 15 September, joined by my mum! Already looking forward to next year.

I recently wrote a new article for the Agatha Christie website about some of the many different depictions of Miss Marple. It was a useful warm up for writing Agatha Christie’s Marple, which is just starting to move out of the research stage, and into the writing up stage… There’s still a while to go until it’ll be finished and published, though!
