Yesterday was my last signing event of 2019 – and it was a wonderful way to say goodbye to what’s been the most fantastic year for me. I visited Blackwell’s Oxford Westgate branch to celebrate Top Marks for Murder winning Blackwell’s Children’s Book of the Year 2019.
I met fans, I signed lots of copies of my books and I was even presented with a framed certificate to commemorate my win!

I feel so lucky to have had such an incredible year as an author, and so grateful to everyone who helped make it happen. Readers, booksellers, librarians, teachers, parents, my friends, my family and my incredible Team Bunbreak – I think you’re all wonderful, and I couldn’t have done it without you.
That’s it for my 2019 events – but don’t worry, I’ll be back in 2020 with lots more opportunities to meet me! You can already book my Oxford Lit Fest event on the 4th April 2020, and much more will be revealed for spring 2020 very soon.
Remember that the short story The Case of the Drowned Pearl will be published for World Book Day 2020, and Daisy and Hazel’s ninth murder mystery, MMU9, will publish on the 6th August 2020. There’s a lot to look forward to next year …
