Liz Morris and Tracy Buchanan are both going to be there, I think they both have jobs as web editors in their companies. I hope I've got that right! I will e-mail you shortly. I'm probably bringing an early reader extract which should baffle all you YA writers!
There are 2 others in MK, and we are meeting up in mid Jan. They both do YA. Let me know if you want to join us - we're meeting in Borders on a saturday.
I'm doing the MA at Winchester, which is the only realistic comute for me. If you want to ask anything do drop me an email.
It's the Keep Going Column in Mslexia - and I should be near the front too this comming issue as I'm one of the featured contributors!
