Cathy Cassidy says...

Selina, we chose 100 finalists and their bfs to come along to the Ultimate Friendship festival… and one overall winner will be chosen on that day. Having lots of finalists is a way of showing those entrants how fab their entries were… and inviting them along to celebrate! All the entry rules, details & prize info have been posted on the MBFR link on the website since February….

Meggie says...

lauren says...

Rainbow Dust says...

Okay, Firstly, this comment has nothing to do with MBFR . It is simply a comment to encourage people to go and vote for you (Cathy) at www.queenofteen.co.uk. Also, your books are the most amazing books I have ever read and I can’t wait for Gingersnaps!

Ashleigh says...

This is for Cathy- I got through but me and my best mate have fell out and she says she doesnt ever want to be my friend again. What should i do??? I still want to come to London

Cathy Cassidy says...

Ashleigh, I’m sure you can patch things up in time… but if the friendship is truly over, you can opt to bring a different friend along to MBFR Friendship Festival. Good luck – I hope you work things out. CCx
