Cows, Colons & Kids

Ever bought a book because of Twitter?  Apparently, many people do… Tweets are becoming the hot new way to tout your tomes… and that Anne Robinson – is she really as horrible as she seems on TV?  We have one man who knows!  It’s a brilliantly gossipy panel tonight, featuring Colin Mulhern whose first YA book CLASH is out now (the launch party involved stage diving, thrash metal and the fire brigade)…  Alison Gardiner, who’s making her first appearance on the show tonight… Donna Ballman and Eve Harvey.
