You may just possibly have heard the news already, but here’s another reminder. At the end of this month, I’m hosting a blog event to celebrate fantasy fiction and one of my favorite authors, Diana Wynne Jones. For the original announcement and sign-up post, click here.
I was beyond thrilled that when I asked five of my favorite bloggers if they would contribute guest posts, they all said yes:
- Ana of things mean a lot on Fire and Hemlock
- Kristen of We Be Reading on Power of Three
- Jenny of Reading the End on Howl’s Moving Castle
- Cheryl of Tales of the Marvelous on The Spellcoats
- Chris of Calmgrove on Deep Secret
You are not going to want to miss any of these! For the final day, we’ll be having a readalong of Witch Week itself.

You could do worse than spend the month reading these six fantastic books, or any others by DWJ that you may fancy. Happy reading, and I do hope you’ll join us! To sign up, please leave a comment (here or on the announcement post), and if you are a button-posting type, grab the Witch Week button above and link to this post to help spread the word. Then come back to ECBR on October 30 for a preview before the real fun starts. It’s going to be a magical week.
Any time I get sandwiched between Ana and Jenny I feel lucky (and a bit inadequate)! I'm really looking forward to rereading Witch Week too. 🙂
They set a high standard, but you are definitely up to it.
So excited for this! I'm in such great company — lots for me to live up to with my Howl's Moving Castle post! I can't wait to read everyone's posts.
The anticipation will pay off, I'm sure. Have you noticed that DWJ fans tend to be an unusually intelligent lot?
Ah, witch week sounds like fun! As you know, I'm a DWJ newbie, so I look forward to more pressure/reasons for me to bump her up my TBR list. 😉

I'm confident that after the week, you're going to find plenty of reasons to bump her up your list.
