PAST EVENTS - AN ARCHIVE
FantasyCon, Brighton - September 2011
Attendees at FantasyCon 2011 in Brighton got a sneak preview of SOUL SCREAMS, as I read out two stories from the collection at my reading on the first day of the conference. It was a very hot weekend, and the hotel had no air conditioning. No one fell asleep, however, which I took as a good sign.
St Hilda's Mystery & Crime Conference, Oxford - August 2010
One of the things I love about the annual crime conference at St Hilda's College is the chance to catch up with other mystery-minded women. St Hilda's was the first women's college at Oxford, and though it is now open to male students as well, the conference still has more female than male delegates. Here I am with Ayo Onatado and Kirstie Long in front of the lovely building where the conference is held, all dressed up for dinner.
London Film & Comic Con - 17 & 18 July 2010
I joined the Mystery Women at the London Film and Comic Con this summer, to sell and sign books and generally marvel at all the wonderful costumes that were present. As a hard-core Star Wars geek, I was very pleased to get the chance to meet so many characters from the Star Wars universe, including these Storm Troopers.
Launch Party for SUFFER THE CHILDREN - 28 April 2010
The 'real space' launch for SUFFER THE CHILDREN was held in the function room of The George tavern, The Strand, London on 28 April 2010.
Here I am being formally introduced by Kirstie before I give my reading. We held a raffle, featuring limited-edition STC merchandise as prizes, and I offered copies of the e-book on CD for sale.

World Horror Con - March 2010
The first public reading of SUFFER THE CHILDREN took place at the Reading Cafe at World Horror Con 2010 on Sunday, 28 March.
The audience may have been small, but it was good practise for future readings.
