Elisabeth Guss
Elisabeth Guss asked Alexander McCall Smith:

I don't actually have a question for you but I want to say I love your books especially those about Precious and her friends. Thank you for writing. They insist I ask a question so here goes. Is there any chance you'll take part in the library talks when your next book appears? 0 My library is Kensington Central and I'd be happy to request your participation if you are agreeable to that.

Alexander McCall Smith Thanks - I'm glad you enjoy the books. I do a lot of public appearances - unfortunately I can't get to all the libraries I should like to visit. Generally, requests for a visit are made to my publishers. All best, AMcS

Dana Gabriel asked Alexander McCall Smith:

Hello Mr. Smith, You write such beautiful, refreshing stories about the Number One Ladies' Detective Agency, and I've read them all. It was exciting to see it on television, but it was short-lived. Are there any plans to continue the series on television? Best Regards, Dana Gabriel, California
