cathy, all your comps sound great, but your overseas is kinda annoying. i was really looking forward to entering it, but i have all 7 of your books. sorry to be whiney. this comp sounds like alot of fun!

Cathy Cassidy says...

Anna, sorry you’re unhappy about the LUCKY DIP comp for overseas readers – I put up a book giveaway for overseas readers as there had been so many requests for one! Maybe you could win a signed book and pass on one of your old ones to a friend? By the way, Maya & Olivia, Angel Cake will be out in JULY 2009 …

Ruth says...

My fave things about winter are- snuggling up with a hot choco with your friends to watch some dvds. Last winter, my boyfriend moved away to Australia. I was really sad. But the night before he left, him and some of his friends met up secretly and went to my house and made a giant snow sculpture of heart in the garden. It was sooo sweet!

Maya says...

Our play is coming up in 9 days, the school trip to the ice rink is day after tommorow, and the snow white play in the swan theatre is on the 9th of January what an exciting year! Yasmeen is looking forward to it too. Have you ever been ice skating Cathy Cassidy? I f you have was it a succses?

Olivia says...

I think the best thing about winter is all the happiness spreading around the earth, and feeling the warmth of others even when it is cold. Getting the pressies is great and spending time with yuur family and celebrating Jesus’ b-day!

Aimee-louise says...

I don’t get how to enter your competions and i don’t get your website i like you and i love your books!!!

Cathy Cassidy says...

Aimee-Louise, If you were trying to enter Winter Wonderland, you’ll see from the dates that the comp closed a while ago & the winners had their fab day in Hyde Park. The only comp running at the moment is the writing comp on the YOU section of the site, on the WRITERS WORKSHOP page, but there are often new comps – you must check the dates though!!! I’m sorry you don’t understand the website. What is the problem? You can click on the links/ buttons on the homepage to go to different pages, and send questions/emails through the Ask Cathy/questions link alongside the current Ask Cathy blog… take a bit of time to explore and I think you’ll like it! If there’s something you don’t understand, just ask using the questions link.

Megan says...

I love you books, especially Scarlett and Driftwood, and I’ve read all the rest; so are there any new books, so I can add them to my Christmas Wish List?

Emily says...

I’M DREAMING OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS !!! Last week it snowed heavily in my town so we were off school! it was brill. My dog tries to catch snowballs in his mouth, then looks for them in the snow its sooooo funny! Have a great Crimbo everyone xxxx
