AUTUMN’S AWESOME!
Tuesday 19th October 2010
I’ve had a brilliant September, touring around to launch my new book CHERRY CRUSH and meeting readers as far afield as Dublin, Plymouth, Brighton, Norfolk, Boston, Bluewater, Bromley, Coventry, Liverpool, Stockport, Scotland… and just about everywhere in between! Now I’m home, and finishing edits on the third Daizy Star book ‘Strike A Pose, Daizy Star’. It’s going to be fab!
After that, I’ll start work on Vanilla Skye, the next book in the Chocolate Box Girls series… I cannot wait!
In the Summer, we ran a comp for the best three photos of readers reading their fave CC book… and the winners are EMMA HARDY, age 10; MALLE POOLA, age 16; and GEORGIA RICHES, age 13. You can see their photos below… Malle is reading Gingersnaps (in Estonian translation) beside a lake in Estonia, Emma is reading her book at The Beatrix Potter Centre in the Lake District, and Georgia is chilling out with Driftwood in an apple tree. Pretty cool! You can also see all three winning photos in the next copy of my free online NEWSLETTER… and some of the other entries will be on YOUR PHOTOS in the YOU section soon!
Some of you will have noticed the new SECRET SUPERFAN PAGE link on the website homepage… and those of you who subscribe to the free online NEWSLETTER should already have a clue to the secret password! If you haven’t checked out the SECRET SUPERFAN PAGE yet, or don’t know the password, sign up for the free online NEWSLETTER… the next issue will give you the clue you need to work out the secret password!
So… what’s on the SECRET SUPERFAN PAGE? Get your paws on that password and take a look! You will find a special challenge for my superfan-readers every month, and find out who my superfan(s) of the month are… plus lots more! Don’t miss out… but remember, it’s for superfans only!
I’m really looking forward to getting back to writing and editing, and cosying up with a hot chocolate and a log fire burning. Don’t forget to tell me how you’re going to make YOUR Autumn awesome!

Hi,
I live in Australia so for me Autumn was ages ago, I find the best thing to do after a windy autumn night is too go outside and play in all the fallen tree leaves! I can’t make snow angels but I can make leaf angels! I am so excited about the new books! Mind you I still have some others to read! Plus I’m trying to write my own stories,
you truly are amazing Cathy Cassidy!

Hey, I live in Australia too so it’s halfway through Spring here, which is great. It’s getting hotter here,a lot hotter than it must be in the UK. I am really looking forward to reading Vanilla Skye. And the rest of the Chocolate Box Girl’s series for that matter. When they come out, that is. I have read all your books over and over again until I can practically recite them aloud! And I try to write my own stories because I plan to become an author one day. Your books are amazing, Cathy! Keep writing!
Hi Cathy, sorry to comment again (!) but I was wondering if you could maybe go and sign in Edinburgh? Because I live quite near there and would be thrilled if I could get a book signed 🙂 xxxxxxxxxx Michela
