Just a quick swoop in to update you on a few things.  First up, I've updated the Events page with details of upcoming appearances at the Edinburgh Festival and the Bath Festival of Children's Literature, so if you're around either place, come along!

I've also received confirmation that I'll be touring Australia in Feb/March 2010 for several weeks, so stay tuned for details about that, too.  Looks like I'll be traversing the place, so I'll finally get to meet some of the Australians who've written in!  Very exciting.

And finally, I've got an actual date for you!  I'll be announcing the secret-secret-secret title of Book Three of Chaos Walking on this very website on 3 August.  So keep checking back!  And in the meantime, have you read the free Viola short story yet?  Why not?

(PS I guess this website's looking a little odd in Explorer 7; it looks fine in Explorer 8, but I'll see what I can do)
