So pleased to see fellow UEA grad Alan Jackson in the Debut Dagger longlist. Alan’s story is fantastic. Delighted that it’s receiving much warranted recognition. Keep your eye on Alan, I’ve no doubt you’ll see his work in Waterstone’s very soon.

There’s just time to sign up for this fab online course with New Writing North I’ll be popping along to be interviewed by Vaseem Khan as a book club guest! #soexcited 📚🗡️ Canelo Crime #amwriting #CrimeFiction Anne Williams Professional Writing Academy
