THANK YOU!!!!
Monday 11th August 2008
I had the coolest email this week, from a girl thanking me for the books, and for writing back to her when she emails… and it got me thinking. We don’t say thank you often enough! So let’s do something about it….
Here is Emma’s email, which started me thinking….
Thanks Cathy for writing to me the way you do. You’re an international writer who has loads of fans and yet you still take time to write back to each one of us personally. You answer our questions and help us out. I know no other author who does that so thanks!
And thanks, too, because your books are so inspirational. They help me understand and believe and want to stand up for myself! Thanks, Cathy!
So… who would I say thanks to? Lot of people, for lots of things!!!!
A big THANKS to my fab family, for putting up with me… to my friends… to all the fab crew at Puffin books & also to my agent, for making my dreams come true… to my writer-gal pals, Fiona Gibson, Lisa Clark, Magi Gibson & Meg Rosoff, for patience, laughs & understanding… to Fluffy Puffin, for everything… to Kitty’s Tearoom, for having the best cake in the known universe… to the cool kids who came to the EDINBURGH BOOK FEST recently, to see me…. to everyone who emails me with feedback & support… everyone who voted for me in Queen of Teen… to Daisy & Kelpie (dogs), Midnight & Snowy (rabbits) & Lily, Pickle & Pepper (cats) for letting me stroke them… to llamas, for existing… and lots, lots more. Including Emma N, for giving me the cool idea for this blog!
What would YOU say thanks for? Let me know in the box below… keep your comments short, & I’ll post the best online!
thanx for ur books ther fab i love them
I totally agree on every word everyone wrote in those great comments. Will you ever travel to the U.S? So many of my friends here admire you as much as me, and it would mean the world to all of the Cathy Cassidy lovers! Thanks.- Katie
Yeah, I agree! We don’t say thankyou enough really, do we? So thankyou for your awesome books, they really get me interested and I can never put one down once I’ve started reading it! I’d also say thankyou to my best mate Holly. We’ve been through everything together. To my family, for putting up with me and making me feel better when I have a strop or get cheeky. To Taylor, for making me laugh loads and inspiring me (Just like you do Cathy!)
And to my cousin Lottie, for being there for me always and cathing me when I fall. (literally and mentally, that one!)
THANKYOU CATHY!!!!!!! xxXxXxxXxxXxx
I’m glad you always e-mail me and are so kind. I probably should have said more of a ‘thanks’ after you gave me that book, but…
Both my Mom and I think you and your books are awesome! Thanks again!
