The Scottish Book Shop Tour to promote Call Me Lion in Scotland is now officially over. 

I could fill a book with everything that Sarah Broadley and I have done over the last week and it has been impossible to pick out the highlights because there have been so many.

I'm still in Edinburgh in the beautiful sunshine. Everyone here is complaining about the heat, but to me it feels wonderful and nothing even close to the scary Climate Change temperatures of the south.

I'll be attending the Edinburgh Book Festival official opening tonight and heading home tomorrow. It will be nice to be anonymous again and let other authors do the work tonight I've been photographed more over the last week than I have in my entire life!

I promise I'll do a more detailed blog post (or maybe two or three) of our adventures, but for now here are some facts and figures (NB: Remember if you want to see more go to Instagram or Twitter and use the hashtags #CallMeLion #CMLScottishBookShopTour)
