Essex Author Day!

On Saturday, I was lucky enough to be invited to be a part of Essex Author Day as part of the Essex Book Festival. And what better way to spend a Saturday than to be surrounded by other writers?

It's incredible to be in a room full of like-minded people. In this case, book lovers! There were loads of different workshops, talks, and readings for people to go to, as well as stands to visit. It was great to see so many book people!

I signed books, had a reading, and spoke to many, many people about the ZA and ZA! Gotta get people ZA ready somehow.

Thanks for having me! Sending out so much love and luck to my fellow Essex Authors! Hope we can do it again next year!

Instagram Livestameet

On Saturday, I was lucky enough to be invited to Instagram's first "Livestameet" where a few awesome people were going to be gathered together to go live on Instagram at the same time.

A room full of amazing women! (Fay and I did not mean to co-ordinate!)

Going live was bizarre, but kind of great. It's like talking to yourself, but people can listen, which I found strangely powerful.

Other than falling into a Central Line tube train and almost landing on my face, I had an amazing day meeting some incredible people and catching up with my awesome friend Fay.

I must say, I felt pretty important when I realised there were only a handful of us invited! I've said it before, and I'll say it again, it's all about who you know.

Thanks so much to Instagram for the opportunity to get together and feedback on the new live feature. And thanks to all the girls for a great day!

We'll be back to book/writing stuff next week, I promise. In fact, I've got another awesome writing advice blog for you next week, so look out for that!
