At the moment I’m checking the editorial corrections on The Rogue, scouring it for errors and tweaking it to make it, as my art teacher used to say, ‘more betterer’, which is going to make for a very busy weekend-less couple of weeks. I don’t have time to write long and fascinating posts here and there’s been no concrete news on new editions or events to come, so I thought I’d simply answer a question I’m asked on Twitter a lot.
Yes, I am going to be doing a tour.
But here’s where the details get vague. I can’t tell you exactly when or where yet, but I can narrow it down a bit. Part of it will be around the time The Rogue is released (next May), but how much earlier it starts and how long after the release I can’t say. It is going to include the UK and France, and very likely Germany and possibly Poland as well. I would expect it to involve mainly capital cities, since we’ll have a lot of territory to cover and that doesn’t always allow time to visit smaller towns, but who knows?
I can’t give much detail yet as it’s all still being worked out, so keep an eye on this blog. I’ll definitely be posting more information when I have it.

I guess it’s safe to bet the Netherlands is out? … Well if I have to go to France or Germany I’ll try to get there! Much closer than Australia, after all
Good luck with all the hard work!
If you come to Poland I hope you will visit Olsztyn but as it is a smaller town than our capitol I don’t suppose it will happen.
Nevertheless I suppose I cannot miss such occasion to get you autograph and meet you in person (of course if you come to my country)
I’m very exating, that You will be in Poland !
I cant wait to meet you Trudi
I’m sure you will love the UK.
Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!
It’ll be so nice if You come to Poland. And I hope my mother will let me go to Warsaw to the meeting with You! ( unfortunately, she doesn’t understand me at the moment and doesn’t want to allow me to go to Warszaw, because it’s quite far from my town,but hope I will convince her!).
I’m so glad becouse You have thought about Your Polish fans
YAY! That’s awesome news! I can’t wait for more info
And good luck with your weekendlessness
Well if you were here yesterday it was aosmlt short weather but then when I woke up this morning it was snowing but now it is completely melted. So if you want till May or later it will be much better. We are going back to NL in April for a visit and can’t wait!!!!
I am so excited for The Rogue and even more excited to see you on tour in the UK!
I apologise in advance for acting like a complete loon, fainting, and holding up the rest of your book signing. It’s a hard job, but someone has to be the freak!
Good luck with the polishing!
Europe! Yay
How about Austria
?
Looking forward to finding out where your tour will take you!
Come to Ireland!!!! We’re just a jump across from London!!!!! We’re lovely (despite the whole IMF thing in recent days
)
I hope that you come to Polish!
You should totally come to Poland! You have so much fans here…
I totally agree with Eoin! It only takes an hour on the plane! Please visit…no one important in the writing world ever comes over. Were like the forgotten step child! :……(
Omg I wish you will stop by Singapore. I know we’re this tiny island country, but eh, one can dream. Besides, it’s not so far from Aussie!
That’s a great news and looking to how many people from Poland found and quickly responded to that information I hope you will visit us – you have a lot of fans here. My two sons and I are your fans since the first book published in polish.
See you in Poland
Oh dear, it would be amazing if you visited Poland! I hope that you will be able to do it
I hope that for my parents it won’t be a problem to take me to Warsaw(the capital), because I live quite far from this city…but if you come, I will have to see you, and they’ll have no choice
This news about your tour made me really happy now. 

Hope you manage to do all your work
Regards from Poland

Och. My. Gosh ! You ! In Poland ! That’s so exciting ! I think I have to sit
I’m from Wrocław, the best city in our country xd You should see this city , it’s the oldest in Poland . Lot of buildings are build more then 100 years ago …
I’m reading all these comments and i’m really shocked! I didn’t realized that You’ve got so many fans in Poland! Most of comments here are by Polish people. Amazing. Journalists write that Polish teenagers don’t read! But if someone look at guys who write their opinions here, he will change mind immediately.
Now, You MUST come to Poland! Don’t disappoint us!
To Mateusz- I live near Olsztyn!
Yeah, you are completely right! Not only Journalists say that polish teenagers don’t read.
Parents say that too! They think that we only play computer games etc. But no, we really enjoy reading really good books (e.g. Trudi’s).
BTW Kasia, in Olsztyn I’m studying English Philology. It’s quite difficult, I must say! xD
Poland loves T. Canavan and we (polish fans) was very happy if you come here.
To Mateusz and Kasia- I’m live near Olsztyn too (Ostróda).
YAAAY! your you’re coming to UK!
Please come Norwich (even if it the a bit of the way!)
LOVE YOUR BOOKS!
That’s great news!! I just really hope your tour will include Germany. If my job allows me to, I would even travel to the capital for that, haha.
Anyway, take your time to make your work betterer, I can’t wait for the Rogue!!
Would be awesome if you came to South Africa..
Hello Trudi!
I’m very glad to know you will come to France! I can’t wait! I was hoping you would come for almost three years now. That’s really great news! I ‘m waiting for you!
I hope You come to Poland. You have so many fans here! I’m so excited! I’d be really happy if You’d like to visit Kielce. I can hardly wait to meet you.
Please come to Poland, you have lots of fans here. As you can see reading those posts (most of them are wrote by polish fans). We all love you and your books. If you can visit Kraków as well. It’s a beautyful city, big and really worth seeing, it was Polands capitol befor Warsaw. But if you decide to visit other city I will come wherever it will be.
I know lots of people that will go see too you if you come to Poland.
Regards from Poland
Irmina–> I live near Kraków
Krakow is definitaly great place to visit since its called cultural capital city of Poland!
Greetings from (right know full of snow) krakow!
Krzysiek
argh.. *now not know…
Im so very excited that your coming to england.. but if you were able to go to somewhere like liverpool or manchester in your tour to, or blackpool even! London is too far away for myself and my dad to come, as he runs a fish and chip shop and I wouldn’t be able to bear it if I missed you coming to the UK!
Greetings,
Courtney & Tony.
You, in Poland? That can’t be true. I know that it’s not possible, but if you could visit Częstochowa
It is also well known Polish city (especially by catholics
).
I’m so excited about you coming to the UK! Please come to Glasgow!
I WORSHIP your books!
hi Trudi
I’m so excited you are coming to England, I can’t wait!
don’t know if my mum will let me go though…..
BTW

Hi Trudi
We (me and my friends) love your books. I hope you can give us a chance to meet YOU in Krakow(Poland)!
See you there! I hope it some much!
Hope you also visit Cologne. It ain´t a capital city but it is still huge!
