It was wonderful to be part of the True North Harrogate event, with the Paul Mirfin Band as the headline band. The first half of the show showcased the rich variety of local creative talent including dancers, a choir, a saxophonist quartet and drummers. I had a stall out in the foyer selling my books and enjoyed meeting local people, and talking to them about Cambodia, refugees and asylum seekers, and the highs and lows of being an author.
