Hi there Kingdom of Gems fans!

It’s about time I posted an up-to-date blog for you… so here it is! I will be posting regularly now. My plan is to write a blog each week, so keep a look out.

The kingdom of Gems trilogy is gradually becoming better known.  To help this along, I have been busy doing Waterstone’s Signing Events around the country. They have been tremendously successful! Not only is it a good way to introduce the trilogy to new readers but it is a good way of meeting those who are already fans. Here I am in Waterstone’s Market Harborough – pictured here with a new young reader keen to begin the adventure!

On my Waterstone’s tour I have met many interesting people too! For example, a few weeks ago I met John Challis – he’s a main character, called Boycie, in Only Fools and Horses and The Green Green Grass. (If you don’t know Only Fools and Horses it is a major, very famous comedy series, so good that they keep replaying them over and over… ask your parents!) We were both signing our books in Waterstone’s Worcester on the same day.

Here are my next few signing events at Waterstone’s:

Sat Nov 26th  Kettering                 10am – 5pm
Sat Dec 3rd  Coventry                     10am – 5pm
Sat Dec 10th  St Albans                   10am – 5pm
Thurs Dec 15th  Camberley           10am – 5pm
Sat Dec 17th  Finchley Road         10am – 5pm

It would be great to see you if you are able to pop in!

Very best wishes,

Jasper

    It’s very good to hear that you have made a good start with the adventure, and I hope you are enjoying it! So, p.46 means you have just met Princess Amalek and Prince Seph. Good. Keep in touch.
