McLellan Book Festival: M.K. Hardy

Brodick Hall, Isle of Arran, KA27 8DL
Sunday 6th September 2026
Welcome to the McLellan Book Festival 2026 - running alongside the McLellan Arts Festival.

Morag Hannah and Erin Hardee are two geeky women who write under the penname MK Hardy. With backgrounds ranging from museum interpretation to web design, and from science communication to ghost tours, they are devoted to storytelling in almost every aspect of their lives and work. 

When they are not telling stories they can be found singing in choirs, foraging for fungi, and working on their 1880s fixer-upper. Their debut Scottish historical gothic novel The Needfire released in July 2025, and The Haunting of Avis Lovelock, a Victorian supernatural mystery, in August 2026, both from Solaris
