Hi, a very warm welcome to you. Thank you so much for visiting, I really do appreciate it.
This is a new site.
I’ve been blogging for a bit over on http://mjmccuaig.blogspot.co.uk/ but I wanted to try something different, source a wee creative space where I can talk (write) about my novels, past and present, my filmmaking, app-making, picture taking, homebuilding and children. Oh and my early morning tweets, my days in motion, the world as I see it on a daily basis before I dare to venture into its arms.
Aye, there’s a lot going on in my life. I’d be really happy if you were to share the journey, even for just a moment.

I’m a novelist and award-winning documentary filmmaker.
My debut novel, 'The Birds That Never Flew', was shortlisted for the Dundee International Book Prize and longlisted for the Polari First Book Prize. 'Almost Then', my second novel, was published by Linen Press in April 2021.
I write, produce and direct documentary films and won Royal Television Society Scotland awards in 2015 with 'Jock Stein' and for 'Jim Baxter' in 2016. 'Jimmy Johnstone' was nominated for a bronze Torc for Excellence in 2017. My feature length documentary film 'Tommy Burns won a Royal Television Society award in 2019 and 'The Women Who Built Glasgow City' won the same award in 2021.
I made two children who are now making children too. That's the biggest achievement of all. I live in Glasgow, Scotland and Rathlin Island, Ireland.
