Events
I did an interesting event recently at Manchester Deansgate Waterstones with William Nicholson, talking about love and sex in teen fiction. Bill Nicholson is a fine writer and his new book, Rich and Mad is a great exploration of a first sexual encounter.Read this write up of the event from the Bookwitch. Many thanks to Ann Giles for covering it.
