Join the Spare Room Start Up tour
04/09/2008 send to a friend
After spending the summer at home, I’m looking forward to hitting the road again for what will be the second leg of the ‘Spare Room Start Up’ book tour. I’ll be at events up and down the UK and would love to see you on the way.
Back on tour
It will be good getting out and about again – meeting home business owners, talking about the book, promoting the website etc. The first event does not involve too much travel but it does involve the scary prospect of returning to my old school …
- Wednesday 10th September - Shrewsbury High School
(It’s just across the road and it’s the place where I wanted to do ‘home business’ classes in place of ‘home economics’ – maybe this is my chance to influence the curriculum!) - Tuesday 16th September Forward Ladies event, Leeds
- Saturday 4th October – Wigtown Book Festival, Scotland
- Monday 6th October – Shropshire Business Womens Event
- Monday 13th October – as part of BT’s Small Business Week
Date and time of this one to be confirmed. - Wednesday 15th October – Motivating Mums event for aspiring authors, Wimbledon Village
- Wednesday 12th November – Business Link in London
- Friday 14th November – Moreton Hall School
- Monday 17th November – Foyles book store
Joining a panel of authors to celebrate business and kick off Enterprise Week.
Hope you can make it to one of these events! - Emma Jones

Comment: Emma, you know that you have come full circle when you go back to your school! The big question is, will you be reunited with your old school pals or will you be meeting the new kids or both?
Good luck with the book tour!
