Two Days To Go!!!!



Oh my life! This is just such an exciting week. First up, the official release date for 'Summer Loving' is now only TWO days away (squeeeeee!) although it is already available in WH Smith Travel outlets (see the pic!)and I know (because I've ordered it, sad thing that I am!) that Amazon have begun shipping today. I know I'm the author, but it really is a book that I am very, very proud to have written and the feedback so far from the few people I know who have received advance copies has been more than generous - 'laugh out loud' and 'tear-jerking' amongst them. So whether you like to sniff into your Kleenex or have a giggle, this book has all bases covered. If you haven't already ordered a copy, click here to do so from Amazon.

Also, there is now under a week to go till the start of the Make for Macmillan Book Week. A pile of wonderful authors, including Katie Fforde, Freya North, Rowan Coleman, Adele Parks, Jenny Colgan, Lucie Hart and many more have all donated books which will be signed with the winning bidder's inscription of choice. This is an AMAZING opportunity to grab a book by your fave author or maybe buy an extra special present for a friend or relative and, as the saying goes, you can't get this in any shop! So, totally exclusive and with all proceeds (the authors are even paying the postage themselves) going to Macmillan, get your cheque books out and prepare to start bidding. It's going to be HUGE.

Hi Allie, Congratulations on Summer Loving. Isn't it just the best thing, being a writer! Remember we met at Guilty Pleasures: I'm rewriting Chaucer. I lost your email and I don't do Facebook so please contact me p.agbabi@btinternet.com. Done new version of The Knight's Tale. Sorry not romcom. Noir. But you still might enjoy. Patiencexx

Hi Allie

I enjoyed your interview in Writer's Magazine this month - I agree, I prefer to write in the 1st person too.

I thought this page might be of interest to you...? There's some good blog posts on there regularly. http://chicklitisnotdead.com/

If you have time, would you stop by my Facebook page? I'm just in the final stages of sorting a publishing arrangement for my book 'Girl Meets Boys', and you can find me at www.facebook.com/louise.gibney.writer

Best of luck with "Sumemr Loving" - having just come home from a fortnight in Greece I look forward to reading it!
