JUST FOR YOU…
Friday 15th February 2013
I have some extra fab stuff for you this week… life is getting busy here at CCHQ, but all in a good way!
First of all, we have an EXTRA, bonus video blog for you over on CathyCassidyTV… that’s right, TWO vlogs this week! First was Cherry’s pre-Valentine’s Day vlog, then Summer’s birthday party vlog which went live on Valentine’s Day itself. Head over to CathyCassidyTV to check them both out, and remember to subscribe and leave a comment to be in with a chance of winning our weekly £10 New Look voucher. (And the monthly subscriber lucky dip of a set of CC books, of course!)
Did you know that this week is Random Acts of Kindness Week? I’m a big fan of RAKs, and I have a couple of RAK projects of my own running just now, but I’d LOVE to hear about yours. What will YOU do for RAK Week? Bake a batch of cupcakes for your friends? Help an elderly neighbour or family member wash their car/ walk their dog/ fetch their shopping? Let someone go ahead of you in a queue, give your change to charity or think up some cool ideas of your own. If you DO think of something fab, take a pic and send it to me or post it up on my FACEBOOK FANPAGE… I’ll feature the best online to inspire other readers!
I’ve been told about a couple of extra book festival events, too! I will be at Oxford Literary Festival in March for a fab books ‘n’ crafts event with a super-cool tea party included – you can find out more about booking here.
I’ve also been invited back to Hay Book Festival and Edinburgh Book Festival… whoop! And for the whole festival feel, there’ll be an ultra cool event at Carfest North in Cheshire, which raises funds for Children In Need. How cool? There will be more info about these events on the EVENTS page on my website as soon as I have the details.
Lastly, I wanted to ask if any of you were dressing up as a CC character for World Book Day on March 7th… if you do, remember to get a pic and send it to me HERE or on the FACEBOOK FANPAGE. Again, I will feature the best online! And don’t forget to get your copy of BITTERSWEET, my special World Book Day book, for just £1 – I’m counting down the days!

Hey, Cathy!
I adore CathyCasidyTV. And when will Coco’s vlog come out? How did you seriously send your autograph to Bryany?(I’m not spoilt, if that’s what you’re thinking, right?!)

I forgot to tell you about this: Me and my sister make vlogs inspired by you! Well, there are not as good as yours! My sister, keeps on putting these American/Australian accents which ALWAYS gets on my nerves!!!
Anyway,
Keep Writing, Cathy!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE THE VLOGS! This week I’m going to volunteer to do things more in school e.g if a teacher needs help. I also do things for my parents too , like chores without being asked and starting my homework straight away. Also if something silly happens between my friends and I , resolve it quickly and apologise straight away instead of dragging it out.
i love ur books.ur the best keep writing
