Bookshop chat & signing!

I don't do signings very often. In large part due to my disabled daughter's health issues. Currently I'm with her in hospital on day 9 of an unscheduled stay.

The only solo signing I've done is for Waterstones in Bristol, on the launch day of Prince of Thorns. Three people came. It was ... somewhat mortifying 😅

Here I am back in 2011, with an impromptu appearance from Stan Lee ... or a body double.


Since then I've signed books at two or three Grim Gatherings, at ComicCon 2023, and at Cymera 2024. That's it ... I think.

At ComicCon & Cymera it was gratifying to have long queues (less so for the folks in them), which I put down to pent up demand, there being quite a lot of Lawrence books out there wanting a signature.

But on a wet (potentially) Wednesday in Bath, as the late addition to John Gwynne's Bath stop, I'll need all the support I can get to avoid looking like Billy No-Mates 😂 So, do stop by with some books for me to sign if you possibly can.

I'm looking forward to meeting John - we've communicated on social media for over a decade, after we were both debut authors back in 2011/12 and both had very disabled daughters. But we've never actually met. So, that will get fixed.
