i cant wait to read it!can i ask yu a question what age were you when you started writing books??
8Hi I met you recently at Limerick City Library, I was there with my daughters school. I have been writing poems and short stories for years but I still have not got anything published. I was amazed by all the work that you put into all of your books and I was wondering if you are not too busy maybe you could give me some advice on how to go about it.
9Thanks for taking the time to read this.

hi Judie
how are you? i really loved to see you. Just in case i’m from st bredan’s and i told you i was from Russia
10and helped you to know whats its in english
11i really love to meet you again
from ludmilla
12dear Judi
I am with my friend Lucy.I am telling you about her because she told me about you.She LOVES your books too.
see you soon
13aisling and lucy.
Thanks, Aisling and Lucy.
14Thanks, Ludmilla. I really appreciate your help in translating my Russian book titles.
15Hi again, Christyna. Well done on your persistence. I’m afraid i don’t know very much about getting short stories and poems published. Have you tried checking the Writers and Artists Yearbook, to see who publishes those genres? Also, my friend Sarah Webb, has a great website with heaps of writing and publishing tips. She’s at http://www.sarahwebb.info Hope this helps. Judi
16I’m afraid that’s a state secret!!
17Hi Aisling. it was really nice to see you and Ruth this week. I hope you didn’t miss too much at school. I think publishers in other countries just like to make the book a bit different for their readers. So glad you are enjoying Alice in the Middle. Judi
18Hi Brian. Even though most of my characters are girls, there’s no reason boys couldn’t read them. Probably the one boys like best is ‘See if I Care’ which I wrote with my friend Roisin Meaney. That has two main characters, and one of them is a boy.
19You come up with an idea, you sit at your desk, and you start writing. It really is a simple as that! If it doesn’t work out, that’s OK. You can always learn from your mistakes and try again.
20Love that user name. Thanks for saying such nice things about my books. I’m flattered!
21HI JUDI.
RUTH AND I WENT TO WATERSTONES AND TUNDED ALL YOUR BOOKS AROUND SO PEOPLE COULD SEE THE COVER.
AISLING
