Open Book on Radio 4 and touring

Another quick hit to say that I'm appearing on Open Book with Mariella Frostrup today on Radio 4 at 4pm (and on iPlayer for a week after) to talk about A Monster Calls. Tune in if you can.

I'm also touring this week with FREE public events in Birmingham and Dublin. Check here for details, and also it looks like I'm going to be on TV this week on Ireland AM this Thursday morning, so watch and see if I've managed to get up early enough to iron my shirt.

There's also a fantastic A Monster Calls blog tour going on, with an interview and further extracts from the book along some terrific books blogs.  It started at Mountains of Instead, moved on to Serendipity and Wondrous Reads.  Today it's at Empire of Books and finishes tomorrow at The Crooked Shelf.  Check 'em out.

Scroll down for even more news (and reviews), greetings to the brilliant new commenters, and yet more soon.
