I had a great time at the KLQ heats this year at Broxbourne School. The event was won by City of London School for Girls with a whopping score of 96! My team of authors did not do so well. 

This is my third KLQ, and I am always amazed by how well it is organised and presented. Wayne Mills works so
hard to set a great range of questions. All the contestants seem to love his enthusiasm, and I have no idea how he keeps it up during his whirlwind tours of the regions.
The final is this Friday at Warwick University, with the UK winners going off to New Zealand for the international finals!


I love the KLQ so much – highlight of my author calendar! Extra fun this year as me and Wayne nattered on about the Rugby World Cup for hours (put a Kiwi and a Welshwoman in the same place, it’s unavoidable!). He’s such a superhero.
It really is a great competition. And the kids are so bright! I’m looking forward to the final on Friday. See you there, Susie.
the changling series is my favorite series i read it all in one week
they are addictive
Thank you, Kaden. I’m glad you enjoyed them so much.
