Hello Detectives! What a month it’s been! I’ve celebrated the 10th anniversary of Murder Most Unladylike in the most incredible style – I held events all over the country, ending up with a huge birthday party in the real Deepdean, Cheltenham Ladies’ College.
If you want to see what the celebrations looked like, head to my Instagram for more – that’s where you’ll usually find me these days!
I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported me on the tour – Hay Festival, Yeovil Waterstones, Waterstones Piccadilly and St Giles’ Church, Book Nook Hove and All Saints Church, Oxford Waterstones and Oxford High School, Booka Bookshop and Lingham’s Books, and finally Rossiter Books and Cheltenham Ladies’ College. Plus of course my amazing Puffin team, as well as my publicity supports Catherine and Sally. It really takes a lot of people to make so many events go so smoothly!
If you came to one of my events, thank you so much! Meeting you and talking to you makes all of the planning and travel and post-event exhaustion absolutely worthwhile. You are amazing!
And if you didn’t, please don’t worry. We’re being very purposeful about our event planning, and trying to cover different regions of the UK and Ireland each time. This tour was very focused on the south, but in the autumn we’ll be heading north – and over the sea! So keep an eye out for announcements in the late summer – I will be back out on the road from the end of September!
And finally, I really am so honoured that people are still reading this first book, and my whole series. I am so incredibly lucky to have had ten such brilliant years, and it is so astonishing to know how much my words have affected each of your lives. It doesn’t get any better than this. Thank you.
