Yes, I’m off to Christchurch! I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to read in my Dad’s home town, and to take part in a reading with Fiona Farrell, to whom I am indebted for choosing my story “Win a Day with Mikhail Gorbachev!” for The Best New Zealand Fiction: Volume 4. If you’re in Christchurch, please come along to one or more sessions. This looks like a great line-up.
