Several exciting things happening in advance of the release of my new Doctor Who novel, The Way through the Woods (release date: 28th April):

An extract is now available on Amazon (and you can pre-order the Kindle edition there too). And don't miss the extracts from the other two books coming out at the same time: Dead of Winter by James Goss and Hunter's Moon by Paul Finch.

I'll be signing copies of The Way through the Woods at Forbidden Planet in London on Saturday April 16th. James Goss will be there too signing Dead of Winter. And don't worry if you can't make it, because you can order signed copies if you click on that link!

It's available for pre-order at the US Amazon site, too - also on Kindle, which is exciting, as sometimes books are available that way in one country and not the other.

Congrats!

Can I get you to do a personal autograph session for me in May? :P

Hee, yes - I was going to say 'Can we order signed copies from you also by inviting you to our house?'

Ooh yay. I'd come down for the day, but it would cost me £110 for the train, which is a bummer cos I'd love to see you (and a bonus meeting of James Goss cos he wrote my favourite Torchwood book). Sigh.

Phew, yes, much too pricey! (And I have to run away promptly afterwards to catch a train north.)

Another book! An actual book! With your name on it! Hurrah!

I hope the signing is fun.

With pages! And a cover and everything! Hurrah!

It had better have good Rory in it. Or else words might have to be had.

Of course it will have good Rory in it! How could Rory not be good in a work by so outstanding an author!

Actually I will be in London at the time, but I don't think I'll have time to nip to and fro from Richmond in between the morning seminar on Miss Horniman and the Manchester School of Playwrights and the matinee of Mary Broome (http://www.orangetreetheatre.co.uk/Mary-Broome/) (which I saw for the first time yesterday, hurrah!). But I do have a copy of The Way Through the Woods on order so I hope I will be able to get it autographed another time!

If Rory isn't good enough, I will ask for my money back.

Yippee for Mary Broome! I'm tempted to make a day trip to Richmond...

[livejournal.com profile] espresso_addict seems to be going on April 9 - I presume for the matinee, though she didn't specify.

9th is out for me. It would have to be w/b 18th if I can make it, although a trip to Yorkshire has just come onto the agenda, so I'll have to play around with dates.

I am down in London from Edinburgh, on April 16th funnily enough. I may pop into Forbidden Planet.

That would be awesome. Please say hello!

I would like to. I will very likely be there.

It should be a fun day, I'm looking forward to it!

And of course I'd sign your copy of KD!
