Want to buy a book for Christmas?

 


Want a new book for Christmas? Or for any of your family as gifts? Then come to the Book Fayre above on 8 November. Plenty of choices to make, from children's books (including mine), memoirs and crime and mystery. There will also be talks by some of the authors, including me. You can hear me talk about what I write and why.

Let's have start Christmas shopping early this year (if you haven't already).

Hope to see you there.
