Talk

We're really happy to welcome Bryony Gordon to Mumsnet this evening for the next hour when she'll be around for a chat and answering your questions. Bryony, thanks so much for writing such an honest and truly funny memoir which resonated with so many of us. There's already a number of questions come in, so without further ado, welcome to Mumsnet...

Bryony, we have a few standard questions that we ask authors when they join us here and we'd like to put to you:

Which childhood book most inspired you?

What was the last book you gave someone as a gift?

What was the best book you read over the summer?

And finally - can you describe the room where you wrote Mad Girl? (was it covered in Take That posters?)
Thanks

That almost brings us to a close. Thanks so much for getting through all the questions and offering such warm and wise advice. It's great to hear about mental health mates and here's Bryony's details again for anyone who is interested in joining in - [email protected]

Bryony is one of our key note speakers at Blogfest on November 12 at Kings Place, Kings Cross - more info here - and we're really looking forward to you join ing us there. Just before you leave - please share with us...what is your favourite biscuit? Over to you and thanks again ...
