Tomorrow is a Big Day.

I'll be signing these tomorrow!
15th March 2012. A red letter day. For a start, it is publication day in the United States. A big hello. I hope you enjoy it!

It is also the day of the official launch of Never Coming Home here in the UK. At 7 pm tomorrow evening I will be welcoming people to Waterstones in Cardiff to celebrate my first published book. My debut novel. WOW. This is a dream that has finally come true. It's taken a while.

There are bottles of bubbly chilling in the fridge, the chocolate hearts will be delivered later today and Waterstones have copies of the book for me to sign. SIGN. I have the camera charged up and the special pen, the gold one I have been saving for such a long time, just for this occasion.There will be a question and answer session and I hope the evening will be a lot of fun.

How do I feel? Excited. Apprehensive. Still not sure I'm not dreaming.

I really want everyone who makes the effort to come along to have a good time. I want to have a good time.

I want everything to be perfect. I'm going over the arrangements in my head at least twice an hour.

That's the control freak coming out.

Am I turning into Author-zilla?

  3. Llongyfarchiadau, Evonne. I'm sorry I won't be there, but even though we're both in Wales you're two and a half hours away from me. All the very best with the launch - enjoy every moment of it!
