Here are a couple of pics from this week’s events, which were my last for a while. This (below) is from Wood Green School<\/a>, in Witney, Oxfordshire, which I visited on Tuesday. I gave talks to two excellent groups of students there, who asked all sorts of great questions.<\/p>\n

…And this (below) is from this morning’s talk and signing with a terrific group from Alexandra Primary School<\/a>, surrounded as we were by the full festive finery of The Big Green Bookshop<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All three talks seemed to go pretty well. This was much to my relief, you can imagine, as right now I’ve got an ‘orrible COLD – coughing, sneezing, nose dripping like a tap, the works (ew). An unholy mixture of medicines and good old-fashioned caffeine abuse got me through all right, but I think I was probably even more manic than usual! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

That’s it, now, for events from me for the rest of this year – until April ’09, in fact. My awesome agents Penny <\/strong>and Gina<\/strong> (Hello, Penny and Gina!) made me promise not to take on any more bookings before then, because I need to focus on PHASE THREE<\/strong> of my SINISTER MASTERPLAN TO CONQUER THE UNIVERSE <\/strong>[MOOHOOHAHA!! um, ‘scuse me ;)] For the same reason, it’s possible that this blog may become somewhat sporadic again for a while. So now seems like a good minute to express my enormous gratitude to everyone<\/em> I met and spoke to at all my events this year<\/a>:<\/p>\n

THANK YOU! <\/strong>\ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

I enjoyed every single gig. And I’m already looking forward to the ones to come. Hee hee hee!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
