We are so excited to announce that Doug Johnstone will be speaking at #GraniteNoir2026: A Milestone Year🙌
It’s going to be a bumper [and a busy] year ahead for Doug Johnstone as he celebrates the 20th anniversary of his first novel coming out and the 20th book he’s had published (coming August 2026). His first two novels, Tombstoning (Feb) and The Ossians (Apr), are being republished by Orenda Books in shiny new editions!
