Updating My Website

Malorie — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 13:21:03 +0000

Okay, due to my ancient PC and a distinct lack of time(!), I had a few problems updating my website. The problems were entirely at my end but hopefully, they’re all sorted out now. So I will be updating my website very soon. Watch this space!

School Events – Important Notice

Malorie — Wed, 23 May 2007 10:52:40 +0000

I’m afraid that until further notice I won’t be doing any more school visits. I will still be attending festivals such as Hay, Edinburgh and Cheltenham (though not the latter two this year) – and will try to keep my events diary up to date so you can see where I’ll be and when.

I will also be doing publicity events when I have a new book coming out, so it’s not inconceivable that I’ll be doing school visits at those times. All requests for visits during publicity tours should be made directly to my publisher, Random House.
