I’m thrilled to announce that Creative Scotland have generously awarded funds towards my epic tiger tracking expedition taking place this winter. This trip is research for my second novel TIGER. Not a natural traveller, I am getting both apprehensive and excited as the moment approaches to don my super insulated costume and head for Siberia. There will be snowshoes. There will be temperatures of -30C. There will be frozen contact lenses and icicles of author tears. But who cares about that because there will be photos. Possibly even of these beautiful creatures, in the wild. I can’t wait!
