After a long week on the road, it was such a thrill to pop in to WHSmith Travel at London Paddington this evening and spy ESCAPE ROOM: GAME ZERO in the WHSmith Kids' Book Club! ESCAPE ROOM: GAME ZERO is an adventure like no other and I really hope WHS Book Club readers enjoy escaping into its pages!

Day one of the FEAR FILES: HIDE AND SEEK tour saw me visit three Bristol schools with the ace Max Minerva Books. So great to explore the secrets of the DARKIVE with students from Years 4, 5 & 6, and my favourite moment of the day came when a boy told me that he thought he'd seen the Itter... #shiver

This article - shorturl.at/87a8G - explains the many reasons why pre-ordering a book ahead of publication is SO important for authors, but there's another reason why you really need to pre-order FEAR FILES: HIDE AND SEEK. It will give you more time to hide from the Itter... linktr.ee/fearfiles
