WORLD BOOK WEEK....

I’m backhome after the Lucky Star paperback tour at last! It was fun – thanks to all the cool kids I met along the way! World Book Week is coming up, and I’ll be doing some events closer to home in Scotland to help celebrate…

On Monday 3rd March I’ll be going to a World Book Week Tea party at Notre Dame High School in Glasgow. Cool! On Tuesday 4th I’ll be in Edinburgh at the Scottish Storytelling Centre at 10.30am, and at 5pm the same day I’ll be in Morningside for a fab, FREE after-school event with FIDRA BOOKS – if you’re in the area, come along and bring a friend! See CATHY’S CAMPER for more details…

On Thursday 6th I’ll be at Stewarton Academy, and finally, on Saturday 8th I’ll be running a FREE Writers Workshop at Castle Douglas Town Hall (Castle Douglas, Dumfries & Galloway) from 11-12pm. I look forward to seeing some of you there! Why not write in and let me know what YOU’RE doing to celebrate? Keep reading, keep smiling… and follow your dreams!
