WRITE AWAY....
I’m home again for a while after weeks of touring about… time to get on and finish Gingersnaps! I’m REALLY excited that my book Sundae Girl has been picked as a Richard & Judy Recommended Read…. wow! I’ll be doing a special event in DUDLEY, W. Midlands, with other shortlisted authors, on 30th October, so I’ll maybe see some of you there! Check the Cathy’s Camper page for more details.
I had a brilliant time in London, Bath and Ireland…. thanks to all the fab kids who came to my events in Meath, Louth and Monaghan, especially those who sneaked out of school specially to see me! Thanks too to their teachers, for being so understanding – meeting an author is educational, after all! I have some fab memories of Ireland and a whole bunch of inspiration, too!
Watch out for the results of the Song Titles Story Comp coming very soon. I’ve started judging, but there’s an avalanche of fab entries to get through… and it’s hard to pick out just a few winners! Meanwhile I’m getting on with my new book, Gingersnaps… promise!
HOME... AND AWAY!!!!
Thanks to everyone who came along to the Twinkling Friendship Fest at Greenwich, the lovely winners of the VIP London Comp and all the cool kids I met at the Bath Children’s Literature Festival! A special thanks to everyone from Combe Down Primary, Kingswood Prep, King Edmund School, Backwell, Churchill Community School, High Littleton, St Mary’s, Hayesfield and Colston Girls School! I had a fab time meeting you all… and I hope you enjoyed it, too!
Special thanks to everyone who made me a friendship bracelet or bookmark, for the fudge at Greenwich, the girls who made the fabby posters at Backwell, and Becky for the amazing fairy cakes!
I’m back home again briefly, with school visits and a Friendship Fest at Wigtown Book Festival on Saturday 6th at 12.30… see my Camper page for more info. Then I’m off to Rome for a few days before my mini-tour in Ireland! I’m mega-busy so I may be a BIT late judging the Song Titles Writing comp… be patient!
I’m busy trying to finish Gingersnaps, too… no rest for the wicked!
Thanks, all of you, for being the best readers ever.
