A week from now I will be heading to Bristol for my third Crimefest!
The first time I attended, SAVING SOPHIE was yet to be published and I spent most of my time rushing around trying to get to every panel possible - in awe of the authors I saw, heard and met.
The second time, last year, I was one of those authors who people came to see. I had my very own Spotlight session - which meant I was on my own - no other authors on a panel to take some of the pressure. It was a scary, wonderful experience and I was overwhelmed by the amazing support fellow authors, bloggers and friends gave me.
This year - I am on a panel! Initially I felt this was going to be better - less nerve-wracking, less pressured. But then I saw who I was on the panel with!
Oh, my! So, there's me - and then there's the awesome bestsellers C.L Taylor, Amanda Jennings and Louise Candlish. To top it, bestselling author Amanda Robson is moderating.
And now I'm back to being nervous again...
I am really looking forward to this new experience though. If you'd like to come along and listen to us chat, our panel - FAMILIES CAN BE MURDER - is on Friday 18th at 2.50pm.
Hopefully see you there!
