Destroying Avalon- literary appearances

Posted on February 26, 2007February 27, 2007 by katemccaffrey

Destroying Avalon has been shortlisted in the West Australian Young Reader’s Book Awards 2007!

It’s reassuring to know that the target audience (or at least the one kid who nominated it) likes it!

For those of you who missed my stellar (or so my Mum said) performance at the Perth Interntaional Arts Festival I will be appearing for one night only at the West Australian Young Reader’s Book Awards Annual General Meeting (try saying that ten times, really fast!) I am to give a talk on my career to date, the novel Destroying Avalon, the world of writing and publishing and anything else that fills the twenty minute time slot!

This magnificent event is at Westbooks 396 Mill Point Rd Vic Park on Feb 28th 2007 at 4.15pm. There will be nominated books on display and people keen to help with promotional ideas for the Awards in your school (that is dear reader if you belong to a school).
