She was awarded a Robert Louis Stevenson Fellowship by the Scottish Arts Council and the National Library of Scotland in 2008 and is currently an Honorary Writer in Residence for the French Department at Glasgow University. Thom presents her award-winning debut, The Tin-Kin, a novel based on photos, artifacts and memories of her mother’s travelling family.
