There was something magical about our reading in Carlisle on Friday night...from the Harry Potter ceiling of the cathedral to the pink and blue facade of the castle...from the pealing of church bells which accompanied the first-half readings to the warm and receptive audience scurrying home laden with chapbooks...a wonderful evening. And everybody read and spoke so well. Let's do it again!

I re-read everyone's books yesterday (the gales gave me a perfect excuse not to leave the house), and found all sorts of new things to enjoy. I'll be really interested to see your artist collaboration, and I'll keep you informed about the book.<BR/>Thanks too, Eleanor and Rob. It was a blast, wasn't it? It's just a shame a Christmas tour isn't on the cards!Matt Merritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371656447328595720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270024178512866290.post-73053834560487970552007-12-02T20:52:00.000+00:002007-12-02T20:52:00.000+00:00Excellent report, Matt.
