Eek! Just got the edits back for Scotland's Medieval Queens from my editor, with this very encouraging comment: "I found the book really interesting (and very well written)!" What more could I ask for? 😃😃😃 @PSHistory @penswordbooks @HistoriaHWA @HistWriters #womeninhistory
Always mortifying to see your face this big on a timeline - but delighted by this news & for the very exciting times ahead! Feeling very lucky to work with so many incredible authors and such a brilliant team at @orionbooks! ✨

So sad to hear about the death of C.J. Sansom. I feel like he invented the historical crime fiction genre, and then continued to breathe fire into it with his brilliant Shardlake series. Put simply, he was the best. An inspiration to myself and many fellow writers. #CJSansom
So sorry to hear this. An amazing talent and a very kind man.
It is with immense sadness that Pan Macmillan announces the death of C.J. Sansom at the age of 71. buff.ly/4devMmF
The death of #CJSansom is a real loss to historical crime fiction. His books took the history seriously and gave a great sense of the period. His legacy is a fine body of work and the character of Shardlake.
Been dropping off proofs at my local indies. Blown away by their pretty shop fronts and amusing owners.
Fascinating article from the wonderful @elizabethbuchan on her many and varied research sources for her glorious new novel, BONJOUR, SOPHIE
Sophie, protagonist of @elizabethbuchan's Bonjour, Sophie, thought 1950s Paris would be smoke-filled cafes and Jean-Paul Sartre holding forth. But the legacy of the war still clung on. See more about the background to Elizabeth's new novel at: bit.ly/HistoriaArmcha… #writerslife
On Saturday evening I got a message from my friend Roz that Chris had died. Awful, sad, a massive loss, but to be honest it wasn’t unexpected. He had been ill for a very long time – and after many health setbacks I think he really wanted to go. 🧵1/15
Coming up just after midday 🙌
I'll be on the Brendan O'Connor Show on @RTERadio1 this Sunday 28th April around midday. Talking autism and my new novel, Seaborne. rte.ie/radio/radio1/b…
This is incredibly sad news – C J Sansom is a giant of the field.
"It is with enormous sadness that we announce the death of CJ Sansom, a writer it has been our privilege to represent since publication of his first novel, DISSOLUTION, more than twenty years ago." #cjsansom #dissolution #shardlake @panmacmillan

Bloody hell! I recently turned 50. Better grab a cane... TBC, nothing wrong with combating age exclusion with a grant like this & yes some will be much older. But the messaging needs work. The over 50s that I know are some of the youngest, smartest and most energetic people.
This grant is for writers over 50. Look at the image.
I did a talk yesterday for a book launch on why I write historical fiction Hear about Hamish Henderson's carrying stream, why Sorley MacLean is such a big influence on me and why Suella Braverman is a perpetual infant #HistoricalFiction #WritingCommunity youtu.be/JpP_JoAzREA
I’ll be chairing the wonderful Sarah on Thursday - please come, it’s going to be wonderful, mainly because hearing her talk is such an absolute joy!

I’m judging May’s #writing #competition for @HWSoC and the brief was to write a 300 word historical piece. It’s going to be a challenge choosing a winner from the many truly compelling and interesting submissions, so I may have to invoke some help from #seshat ✍️❤️🙏
Terribly sad news. :-(
His longtime editor and publisher, Maria Rejt, has said: ‘I shall miss him hugely, not only as a wonderfully talented writer who gave joy to millions, but as a dear friend of enormous compassion and integrity.’ buff.ly/3JFeIJ6
Simply irreplaceable. And heartbreaking that he should leave us just two days before his superb novels finally appear on film.
So sad to learn of the death of the brilliant C. J. Sansom. It doesn’t seem possible that it was twenty-one years ago that his brilliant lawyer-detective Matthew Shardlake swept into my life. I’ve spent immeasurable blissful hours lost in his works. Rest in power, Chris.
