If any of you would like an invite to my launch, please don’t be shy and do ask. I’d love nothing more than to have people who really want to be there launching Like Bees to Honey into the world.
And, if any of you would like more details of any of the events, again, please ask.
And, if any of you would like to actually come to the events, that’d be very perfect.
And, finally, if any of you would like to ‘moan’ about the lack of down-South events, then do that too. My publisher might just see your comments…

Moan, moan, moan, we need something down South, please…
I would love to be there but won’t be in the UK until July…maybe we could arrange one in Bangkok? ;-D
I shall be there in spirit.
P and I would love to come to your liverpool launch! And I expect some of the rest of our liverpool writing mafia would too.
Cathy, I keep moaning that Caroline needs a London launch…. glad someone else agrees she should come south!

Cathy –
JJ Beattie – Bangkok? No problem ;-D Looks like Jon won’t have to buy you a coke, again!
Rosie – great! Would love to meet you. I’ve emailed an invite for you and P. Liverpool Mafia are very welcome!
Elliott – that’s 2 moans for London…

Caroline – make that 3 moans for down south- although not necessarily london…
Hope to make the Chester event, Caroline.
Here’s me officially moaning. Come (back) to London, please. It’s a lovely place full of readers who would like to see you! xo
Caroline –
Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London… Moan London…Moan London… Moan London… Moan London…Moan London… Moan London… Moan London…
There lots of moans for London.
If I have to I will start a bring Caroline Smailes to London campaign….

It’s right in the middle of assignment time so there is no way I will be able to make it up to Liverpool….if you had one in London however….would be there in a shot!! Pay attention Caroline’s Publisher….we need an event in London!!

Oh I wish I could come! I’m half tempted to fly down anyways, but sigh, alas cannot. I will be with you in spirit honey! I’m so so so looking forward to this book! I can’t WAIT to read Like Bees To Honey! Wooooot!
Please set up an event in or near London. I have followed the development of the book / cover with great interest and would love to come and buy one direct from the author.
Caroline, you know that I love to be at any one of those events as they’re all going to be classic, but it’s such a long long way for me to go. I’ll be there in spirit, with Like Bees to Honey in quivering fingers as I stand in line, desperate for you to sign my copy (as long as I can stand the queues that will be no doubt snaking around the block, that is).

Really, really exciting!!
But yes, I am officially Moaning too. But if you can’t quite make it all the way South, I’ve heard that Nottingham folk are rather nice …
Moan moan moan. Need you a little bit further south. Desperately.
Xenia – any place past Chester is south for me
Angi Holden – that’d be great. It looks to be a fun event with me and two rather talented writers.
Sue Guiney – and I would love to see them too!
Elliott Rodgers – gosh that’s a lot of moans!
Carol – hope to see you soon!
Jamieson Wolf – fly, honey, fly!
BucksWriter – I’d love to finally meet you.
Darren Craske – ‘there in spirit’ is perfect for Like Bees to Honey and I’d love to meet you one day, Mr Craske.
megan – Nottingham folk are lovely!
Helen –
You are lovely.

As others have said, this is all a bit far away for me as well. Somewhere in the general area of London would be good, Mr Publisher.
I’d love to come to your launch, but I’m not sure I can get to Liverpool on that day. Maybe for the next one

pierre l – thank you!
Nicola Smith – oh my. I best get writing
