"Best. Decision. Ever" wrote Mnetter SecretSpy when she followed advice of other readers and picked up Graeme Simsion's The Rosie Project. It was undoubtedly one of the most discussed books of the year.

Graeme Simsion's sequel, The Rosie Effect is now in paperback and we're delighted that author Graeme Simsion will be joining us on this thread to discuss the books and answer your questions on Wednesday 11 March between 9 and 10 pm. Find out more about the books and post your questions in advance to this thread.

Evening all, a very warm welcome to Graeme Simsion who is over in the UK at the moment for the launch of The Rosie Effect.

Graeme, as you may know it's Mumsnet's 15th birthday today, so it's great to have you join us and raise a Wine on this auspicious occasion. Over to you Graeme....

Graeme, can we ask you the standard Mumsnet questions that we like to ask all our authors...

What childhood book most inspired you?

What would be the first piece of advice you would give to anyone attempting to write fiction?

What is the best book you’ve given someone recently?

And the best you’ve received?

Good luck with the tour Graeme. Can we ask what you are planning next? Also can you recommend any other australian authors that we should be reading?

That is very exciting. Santiago de Compostela is one of my favourite cities, so I will very much look forward to reading that one. Do come back and join us again when it's finished.

I think that's about time up now. Graeme, thank you so much for taking the time to join us during your hectic schedule and answer all the questions. Good luck with the tour and enjoy your time in the UK (hope you're coping with the weather after your balmy Melbourne summer).

If anyone has yet to finish TRP or TRA, please do continue to post your thoughts on this thread.
