    Simon Beckett (UPDATED)

    Reply Contact

    I found out today I know someone who knows Simon Beckett (he lives in Sheffield apparently), so I got an email address and have emailed him to praise The Chemistry of Death and to ask if he'd come on here for a chat, as I know a lot of people liked that book

    I'll let you know how it goes

    Had a Reply From Simon Beckett:

    "Hi Andy. Thanks for getting in touch. Glad to hear you enjoyed Chemistry and hope you get on all right with Bone when it arrives - always good to know a fellow Sheffielder likes the books.
     
    Readitswapit is a great idea, and I'll be very happy to answer questions. Just let me know what you'd like me to do.
     
    Best wishes,
    Simon."
     
    Fiona (or anyone really).... what do i do now?

    Well, its difficult to have carte blanche! 

    I'd say a Monday or Tuesday evening might be the most best time to catch the majority of people in.  -  Probably better in mid - end  June  (although I'm away last wk June1!!) - end of May people go away and July/Aug you're into major holiday season.

    Thanks Andy!
