Just a quick reminder that I'm being interviewed on Waterstone's Twitter @waterstones tomorrow, 1 February at 5pm and the questions are coming from you!  You can log on live and ask questions there, or send questions in advance to tag #patrickness.  Lots of good questions already coming in.  Don't miss out!

And, equally importantly, my Australia Schedule for my visit in Feb/March is up on the Events page.  These are all my public events (I'll also be visiting tons of schools), and booking and ticket info are included.  So, if you're an Australian fan and want to see me, here's your chance!

I expect to be doing at least one public New Zealand event, too (and possibly something else extra-cool in NZ as well), so stay tuned.

In the meantime, hello to the first-time commenters:  Luke, Stephenie, Chris and Eliza.
