Where to See me at YALC


If you're like me and lucky enough to be attending YALC in London this year, why not stop by and say hello? I'm notoriously bad at names and faces. I say the wrong thing in conversation. I never know whether to offer a hug or to shake people's hands or throw them over my shoulders and parade them around the hall while everybody claps and cheers. But I will try my best to be civil and I *do* want to meet you.

So, where, oh where will I be?

On Saturday, I'll be sharing the stage at 3pm with brilliant writers to discuss Myth, Magic and Fairytale. An hour later, exhilarated and sopping with sweat, we'll all be signing our books. I will sign anything, by the way. I am left-handed and willing to scrawl my name backwards if you request it.

On Sunday -- is that even a real day? Who knew? -- I'll be hanging around. I'm not sure where yet, but I'll be available for Christenings, Bar Mitzvahs or coffee. What could possibly go wrong?
