Yes, I am, one of my very favourite cities.  Only a flying tour this time, I'm afraid, but I'm going to be appearing at Eason Bookshop on O'Connell Street on Thursday, 13 May from 6-9pm.  I'll be appearing with Sarah Rees Brennan, so a two-for-one.

It's ticketed, and the way Eason's seems to do it is by entering into a draw here.  Or you probably also give the store a call for more details (01 858 3800).  It'd be great to see you there!  I'm sorry it's not the rest of Ireland just yet, but here's hoping.

Tickets are also finally for sale for the Hay Festival.  I'm doing two events, one each on Friday, 5 June and Saturday, 5 June.  It's a great Festival to go to.

Greetings to all the new commenters (too many to name, gosh!), but I do read them all.  Maybe see some of you in Dublin or Hay.
