Website update
The "Sophie's Books 4" page has now been updated to mention the audiobook release of "The Old Bones", complete with an image of the CD edition. My US copy of the original book seems to be coming from the States by carrier pigeon, but hopefully, some more detail of it will be on this website before the end of April.

Carols Concert Aftermath
As planned, Sophie attended the Place 2Be Xmas Carols Concert in London last night. I can confirm this as, at the fourth or fifth attempt, I actually managed to get to go this year. Sophie read an "abridged" version of one of her Home And Garden 'Christmas' columns, and was also seen shaking some sort of music instrument around a piano during a performance of "Jingle Bells" by one of the other guests, Joe Stilgoe. Photo will be on the diary pages later today.

Carols Concert

Website update
As your webmaster was actually in attendance at Sophie's appearance at Cheltenham Literature Festival today, I have uploaded one of my own photos from the event onto the diary pages. Sophie read the whole of the new "Madame B" book, and was accompanied by a puppeteer - these events are usually a bit of a Q&A session with a brief extract being read out part way through, and never a full blown "performance", let alone one with a puppet show going on at the same time!

Madame B related bits
So "Madame Badobedah And The Old Bones" is now out, and Sophie has been doing some promo for it this week. Yesterday, she was interviewed on the BBC 6Music Breakfast Show by Lauren Laverne, and she has also recorded an episoide of "Tracks Of My Years" for BBC Radio 2. Info here https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001qty0. I will be adding some photos to the diary pages and of course, putting some info about the book, on the website over the next few days I expect.
