Edinburgh International Book Festival
Well, it was a blast. I don't think there was a single person in the entire city of Edinburgh I didn't enthuse to ( or should that be "at"?) about Slightly Jones and her new website. Sometimes more than once ... (I can see now the look on the face of the poor person I tried to give a competition flyer to two days in a row. "There is no escape," I cackled madly. She agreed with only a slight shudder.) I talked about Slightly in the authors' yurt, in the local bookshops, at lunch with friends, to passing bloggers, at the ALCS Summer Reception, at the Teen Titles do - oh, and at my event! Many thanks to all the schools, teachers and pupils alike - you were a great audience, asked really good questions, and will make excellent detectives! I look forward to you joining the ranks of the Slightly Jones Detective Team soon.
Still, just in case you are one of the few who slipped through my fingers this week, here are all the links you'll need ...
You'll find SLIGHTLY JONES' NOTEBOOK (the brand new Slightly Jones website) here
and
if you'd like to have a go at the very first monthly competition - THE SLIGHTLY JONES ART-Y-FACT DRAWING COMPETITION - look here!
Phew. Joan.
