I owe so much to our wonderful #NHS . Last Saturday my partner had a heart attack. He was being treated in hospital within 20 minutes, fitted with a stent on Monday and is now home. We cannot let the NHS be destroyed by a corrupt and greedy government. #SaveTheNHS #ToriesOut

My children’s novel, The Titanic Detective Agency was published 3 years today. It has been such a pleasure to meet so many fellow #Titanic enthusiasts since- both in schools and here on Twitter.

My children's novel A Pattern of Secrets is coming out in April 2018. I loved writing about Jessie Newbery from Paisley, who began GSA's embroidery dept and created the Glasgow Style rose motif and lots of suffrage banners! @Paisley2021 @HistoryGirlsAye @cranachanbooks

Happy #InternationalChildrensBookDay ! Have to pinch myself often as being a published author was a childhood dream and it took me so many years to achieve it. If it’s your dream keep going! #amwriting

Needing a hook? I can email a letter to your class about the real-life characters and the inspirations behind the plot of The Titanic Detective Agency and/or my Victorian-set novel, A Pattern of Secrets. Virtual visits available too! #edutwitter #history #Victorians #Titanic

Does anyone else’s brain like to switch itself on at four in the morning, then download and play a compilation of decades-old tactless comments/parenting fails/embarrassing moments? Just mine?

Lovely news from @cranachanbooks today. The Titanic Detective Agency is going for a reprint already. I reckon it's all thanks to would-be aviator and polar explorer Bertha Watt, for being so brave and for having an excellent memory of events on the night of the sinking. #Titanic

I'm glad I left teaching last year because I'm not sure I could have coped with the amount of disgraceful, misinformed vitriol that is being spouted on here about the teaching profession at the moment. If you're one of the people calling teachers lazy, you are utterly clueless.

Sad to say goodbye to Arran. What an absolutely stunning island. Hope I can return soon. 😍 #scotland
