I really should be off helping my best buddy get elected
Mayor of Mykonos in tomorrow’s Greek municipal elections (see tee-shirt above),
but instead here I am at CrimeFest 2014 in Bristol enjoying the camaraderie of
terrific mystery fans and writers, and—together with Stan—toasting the
celebrity of our very own Yrsa who is this year’s Featured Guest Author, along
with Mark Billingham. Congratulations to
Yrsa Sigurdardottir, Queen of Icelandic Mystery.
All of which is my way of saying, here are photos of
Bristol, Yrsa and her entourage (including Stan and moi), our hard work on
panels, and my trusty guide showing me all around Bristol.

Okay, so life is not all that tough. But it’s off to Gatwick
at 01:30 Sunday to catch a flight back to Mykonos in time to join the citizens
of Mykonos in celebrating their decision to bring their island the new day it
deserves.
