I’m really here!
Cheerio! I am here in London …. all has gone smoothly EXCEPT my wireless connection at the hotel, so I’m so behind with my blogs. I’ll probably be catching up with this fabulous trip after I get back. Just know in the past week, I’ve spoken at the Bath Literature Festival, seen a bit of Bath (at the least I did see the Roman baths), spoken at the Royal High School Junior School in Bath and the Shaw School in Wiltshire …. shared a talk with Sue Bentley at the Guardian Newsroom … had a fun experience on the kids’ radio show Go4It on the BBC … traveled to St. Albans and spoke at the Abbey School (MUCH to say about St. Albans), had a live webcast for the popular Blue Peter show, a FAB dinner party with booksellers, more meetings, signings and lunches at my wonderful UK publisher Faber, appeared at Stratford Circus on World Book Day, and spoke at the Basildon Children’s Festival. Today, my first day off, has been spent recovering. Tomorrow, off to Orpington!
I will have photos and details to come. Sorry about that but please know, Humphrey says the UK is FUN-FUN-FUN and apparently the feeling is mutual!
For U.S. fans: SURPRISES ACCORDING TO HUMPHREY was published last week. TROUBLE ACCORDING TO HUMPHREY came out in paperback.
Now back to a very tense game show: DUEL!
