One of the events I look forward to each year is the Oxford Literary Festival and, this year, I went to hear Anthony Horowitz talking about his books and TV career at the Sheldonian Theatre. I’m a huge fan of his Alex Rider novels and have heard him speak before. He’s one of the most entertaining and open speakers I’ve ever heard and he always makes time to meet all his fans afterwards, signing books late into the night.

More Writer Top Tens this week – from two of my favourite authors - Adele Geras and Sam Mills.
