Whoop Whoop! MUMNESIA! is OUT NOW!
I'm so excited I'm running a giveaway!
(see bottom of the page for details!)
 |
| Win a whole bag of MUMNESIA goodies! |
I was a little bit naughty for this book and actually had my launch party last week at Waterstones Islington - a WHOLE WEEK early! - and had so much fun I wanted to share a sneaky peek at my party photo album, and share my five steps to a RAD launch party!
 |
| Step 1: Get party supplies together! |
 |
| Step 2, Decorate Nails! |
 |
| Step 3. Dress like it's the 80s! |
 |
| Step 4. Make sure there's LOTS of fun stuff to eat and do! |
 |
| Step 5. Add lots of wonderful friends and family (the most vital ingredient) and PAR-TAY! (L-R My mum, author Elizabeth Dale, author Sarwat Chadda, my sister, a Pat Sharp wannabe, me and author Tamsyn Murray!) |
 |
| The fab author Sarwat Chadda re-enacting the 80s - mobile phones really were HUGE back in the day! |
 |
| Rubik's Cubes are HARD! Lovely Kathy Evans (author of More of Me) with wonderful crimped 80s hair! |
 |
| My lovely agent Jenny Savill and her daughter performing an extract of MUMNESIA - fabulously! |
 |
| And my lovely publishers Macmillan even gave me a MUMNESIA necklace! |
 |
| Everyone wrote down their fave memories of the 80s: Roller Boots and Rara skirts, Hair Wraps, ABBA, Reebok High-Tops, Wacaday, Adam Ant, Crimped Hair and Shell-Suits, Mullet Hair, Wham, Thundercats, Leg-Warmers and Spitting Image all feautured - and my fave... |
 |
| I'm so thrilled that the fab Lilly Lazuli (centre) who illustrated the cover could come to the party - it was the first time we'd met! |
 |
| My lovely friend Kathy even took Polaroid photos! Pics to treasure forever :) |
It was a wonderful evening that I'll never forget.

I come to this place every now and then. The place is really nice, the crowd is full of regulars, and the food and drink specials are pretty good! The staff at LA venues is great and really gets to know your name. Totally worth your time on any night for good food and drink.
