  • Sell-out tours of international literary festivals

  • Keynotes (for example at the launch of the consultation for a new National Curriculum)

  • Women-only nights

  • Business orientated symposia following Davos

  • After-dinner evenings

  • Late-night openings at the Victoria and Albert Museum

  • Pre-performance discussions of Classical plays

  • Interviews and conversations with other authors at the Southbank centre

  • Academic lectures and seminars as well as cross-legged on the floor encounters with groups of 7-year olds!
