Please remember to RSVP where required and double check times, dates and venues.

Stay tuned for more events and if I'm not coming to your part of the world this time, have a chat to your local bookstore or library and see if they'd be interested in hosting me some time. Let me know!

And, as always, please double check all times, dates and details with the venues - I've been known to get them wrong!
