Hi All,

This week is full of fun things – I’m visiting 3 schools, including my daughter’s school.

I’m meeting Megan McDonald for dinner on Thursday evening – me and 12 of my very best kiddi lit friends that is – I’ve been invited to join the Walker gang for a special ‘Meet Megan’ dinner and I couldnt’ be more thrilled. I’m a huge fan.

Then I’m off to the Irish Pen Dinner on Friday night to see Roddy Doyle getting the Irish Pen Award for his work. As you may know I’m a huge fan and I can’t wait. (Yes, being a huge fan is a bit of a themes this week!).

I also have to give a writing award to a young writer who won the World Book Day writing competition – her story will be in a special book and everything. More on that later in the week.

I also found a great book on how not to get published – I’ll run upstairs and track down the title – ok it’s How Not to Write a Novel – Amazon link below.

Not a bad little book. Stephen King’s ON Writing is still way better however – it truly rocks!
