I'm typing this in an internet phone box at the top of Rose St in Edinburgh. The keys are tiny and poxy, so please excuse any spelling mistakes!! Just finished my second event at the festival. The first, "The birth of Darren Shan" was OK, but not great -- it took longer to tell than I thoght, so I had to rush it a bit, and there wsn't as much time for Q&A as I'd haveliked, and I had to cut the Song from it!!! But at least the fans were patient, and I enjoyed the signing afterwards. I knew I wouldn't enjoy this event as much as one of my normal ones, but I like to trynew things every so often!! I enjoyed my "Demonata" event much more. I read out extracts from the next 3 books inthe series, answered LOTS of questions, and got to sing my "Darren Shan is just the man ..." song at the end!!! Had a bigger crowd than last year, which was great!! Thanks for everyone who came, and especially those who waited so patiently to hve their books signed!!!!! I'm staying on in...
