I just got back from a terrific tour of the UK, making stops in London, Manchester, Bury, Liverpool, Milton Keynes, and Birmingham, and talking up Torment to tons of bloggers, librarians, teachers, booksellers, and lots and lots of readers. I met all the wonderful people who are publishing my books in the UK and even got to attend the 4th annual Eternal Twilight Convention It was a blast.
See?
Blogger bonding! We met a pub called the Angelic.
Cutting a Torment cake at the Random House offices. And yes, those are a thousand signed Torments behind me.
Taking question at a Bury high school.
When in England, one must visit Selfridges
A few days holiday in Aberdeen was the perfect end to the tour.
Thanks to everyone who came out to see me on the road. It was wonderful to meet you, to hear what you love about the books, and please know I’ll keep your questions and comments in mind as I get to work revising Passion.
Stay tuned for more details about my upcoming trip to the Philippines, So Cal tour dates, and future stops across the south!

I love the UK and have spent a lot of time in the home of my heart. Hope you had a great time…it looks from your pics that they love you as much across the pond as we do here in the US.
Was lovely to meet you at et4!
Still reading torment… Enjoying it so much I don’t want it to end.

I real and fell in love with Fallen last week and reviewed it on my blog last night and I’m currently in the middle of Tourment and loving that too!
It’s a pity I missed you on your UK tour, but hopefully you’ll be back again with another book
Looks like you had a great time. It was lovely to meet you
Thanks again for the interview, I published it yesterday at my blog: http://lindeay.wordpress.com/2010/11/03/a-talk-about-fallen-angels-and-writing/
Was lovely to meet you at Eternal Twilight 4
Wow your hand must be so sore!
Only just found out you’d been to the UK, and gutted to have missed you.
I absolutely adore your books – it’s nice to have something different on the market and these just has a way of speaking to me that none of the other books on sale seem able to offer.
LOVE THEM!!!!
Incredible! Torment was amazing. Also you must be very tired from all that signing. WoW. I just feel a excited about Passion. Though I hope for a little more Cam involved in Luce and Daniel’s past. I want to know what Cam is really hiding under all his bad boy act!!!!
Also met you at Eternal Twilight 4, loved your reading at the talk and your Q&A. Look forward to Passion. =)
Mrs. Kate, you should come to the southeast sometime whenever you can, because me and my friend would love for you to come down.
I was just out in England not so long ago. It was amazing and hope that you as well as I did had an amazing time. I have your torment book and am gettng the Fallen book.

This made me so nostalgic! I moved from Scotland to Canada just last year…your photo of Aberdeen (a gorgeous place to spend a few days holidaying) seems somehow familiar
Are you coming to Canada?
