Thursday, to be precise, my first events at the Perth Writers Festival, followed by visits to quite a few places in Australia and New Zealand.  I'll be visiting quite a few schools, doing more than quite a few interviews, and will be doing a large number of public events that anyone can come to, so check out my Events page.

Can't wait to finally meet all you fantastic Australians and New Zealanders who've been writing in over the past two years!  Maybe even see some of you on Thursday.  In the meantime, a very, very, very long plane journey awaits.

So a bon voyage welcome to the new commenters Psyche, Zari and Aimee, and I'll see the rest of you down under.
