I was delighted to be able to catch up with some old friends and to make some new ones. It made me realise just how far I've come since I was one of the Crime in the Spotlight speakers, two years ago. Then, I knew almost no one in the huge, welcoming crime-writing family that exists. I made some good friends in the twelve "Spotlighters" and as a consequence of meeting them, have met many more fantastic, warm, helpful, supportive people - writers, book bloggers, friends of friends who neither write nor blog nor have anything to do with crime-writing beyond reading it. All have been absolutely amazing. And none of it would have happened without Bloody Scotland!
Short post (Sorry! Life is ridiculously busy at the moment), but I just wanted to say how brilliant Bloody Scotland is and how grateful I am for the amazing friendships that have spun off from it.
Hopefully see you all there next year!
