I am so excited to be part of today’s announcement of the
Edinburgh International Book Festival’s programme for August 2017. I’ll be
appearing alongside the amazing and prolific Scottish children’s author and Carnegie
Medal-winnner, Theresa Breslin, on Sunday August 13th, at 4pm in theBosco Theatre tent on George Street. Theresa’s latest YA novel THE RASPUTIN
DAGGER is set in the Russian Revolution, and will be published in August, so we’ll
be talking about creating fictional stories around historical events.
I'm also proud be taking part in the free reading on Monday August 14th, to support the important work of Amnesty International. Each day, festival authors will be reading works by authors who have been imprisoned by oppressive regimes around the world.
To see details of my events, and also access the full
festival programme, click on the link blue links above. Tickets will go on sale on Tuesday
June 20th at 8.30am BST.
Please come if you can, I’d love to see you in the tent on August
13!
