L A — Mon, 16 Sep 2013 16:12:19 +0000

So excited to be introducing eloves me, eloves me not at Toronto’s Word on the Street Festival #WOTSTO on Sunday, September 22nd.

Not only is this a fabulous literary event that has grown in popularity year over year, it takes place in my home city.

Toronto, it’s wonderful to be back!

Please pop by and say hi. My book-babies and I can be found at Booth #215 from 11 am – 6pm.

PS – There will be free gifts direct from Australia for the first 10 books purchased, so come early!

Some Ellen Degeneres Show Fun at Sydney’s Opera House – #elleninoz

L A — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 03:36:50 +0000

Had great fun at The Opera House today

Thanks to: @TheEllenShow, @jeannieeeee and @andylassner et al.

Ellen has the best fans – everyone was friendly, full of energy, happy and well behaved. Organisers were on hand with sunscreen and water, ’cause, man, it was HOT! And of course, local media were out in full force capturing all the fun.

While I”m not getting on a plane to LA to meet Ellen (yet), I met cardboard Ellen and some wonderful people, had some laughs, and I did get the chance to give away a few books, including a specially autographed one for Ellen for her birthday – hopefully she actually gets it.

If today was any indication, March is going to be a blast!

Can’t wait!

Autographing “eloaves me, eloaves me not”

Had some fun participating in the latest photo meme – baguette-me-nots on tumblr.

The baguette-me-nots meme

It’s also trending as #baguetting on twitter. Have a look at some of the fun people are having with it.

Got your own idea? Add it!

I may just add another one about a certain character in the novel, now affectionately being called ‘baguette-boy’!
