Too tired

This is just a very short , very late-at-night post to say that I attended the Edinburgh International Book Festival, and I enjoyed myself, and I did my solo event and the other one with Ian Rankin, and they were both delightful. The signings were amazingly efficiently run, and the one-item-per-person rule was on the one hand, cruel, and on the other hand meant that on the first day I signed for 500 people in 3 hours.
(This was my favourite Fringe show so far.)

It's strange being so

Congratulations, yet again. U da man.

Charles Well, at least I didn't say "more famous than JC," like Lennon did. Neil wouldn't want the hideous publicity.
