Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to let readers know that I am on my way to the west next week. I’ll be in Albany for a special day of school visits and then I’ll be in Perth from Thursday to Saturday. I’ll be visiting quite a few schools and also having two special public events which are listed on my events page. One is on Friday afternoon with Westbooks and the other Saturday afternoon at Boffins Bookshop. Please check the details – you can click on the links and I hope to see you there!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi its me again from the Alice Miranda blog
Thank you for updating this blog page
from Harriet
P.S Have a happy Easter
Hello Jacqueline,
My name is Emily and I’m a massive fan of your Alice-Miranda books. I’m just wondering if there is going to be a 14th book in the AM series. If there is, could you please tell me what it is going to be about(name of book, setting, etc.). Like I said before, I am a massive fan of the Alice-Miranda series. It is by far my favourite series. I have all of the books (all 13) and I have read them all twice. I hope that there is many more books to come. I would be thrilled if you answer this message.
From Emily in Melbourne
Hi Emily,
I’m currently writing Alice-Miranda in China – it’s due out 1 September. After that I think she’s going to have an adventure back at home. There will definitely be more books to come. Thank you for your kind words – it’s lovely to know that you enjoy the stories so much.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Alice Miranda in China perfect and Jacqueline Harvey I love your books as well and really be fan
From Ploy Wiseepad
Thanks Ploy – I’m so pleased that you’re enjoying them.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi Emily,
Yes there will be a 14th book – Alice-Miranda in China, which I am working on at the moment. It’s a really exciting story and there are lots of acrobats in the book – and sightseeing and fun places in Hong Kong and China as well as new characters. I hope that you’ll enjoy it. After that there will be at least two more books but I think there will be more than that.
Thank you for your kind words.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline

Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi Jacqueline I was really exited to hear that you are coming to nsw could you please tell me when the next Alice Miranda is coming out
Hi Michelle,
I actually live in Sydney. Alice-Miranda in China will be out in September this year.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hello Miss Harvey,
Hello, i just wanted to say happy Easter, it is a bit late because i celebrate Greek Orthodox christian Easter. Sorry:(. I can’t wait till September, its my favorite month of this year because two new books in my two favorite series are coming out. AM in China and The Maze Runner; The Fever Code! I am so excited!
A huge fan, Maya
Happy Easter to you too Maya – I think yours is still a little while away isn’t it. I was at a school with lots of Greek children last week. Glad you’re excited about the books coming out.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hello again Miss Harvey,
Thank you! Yes, our Eater is still a little way off. Not too too far away though, the first of May actually. But i’m still very excited for it. Lots of my friends at school have been bringing in chocolate eggs and bunnies but i am still waiting. But i think It’s worth the extra wait, Easter week is my favorite time of every year, i love the midnight feast we have and walking around the block with the candles at midnight with the epitaphio the night before that. Do you have any special Easter traditions? What’s your favorite celebration of the year?
lots of admiration and excitement, Maya
Dear Miss Harvey, I love the Clementine Rose series. I especially like Clementine Rose and the Treasure Boxs.
Dear Nuha,
Thanks for your message. The new Clementine Rose book is due out on 1 July 2016 – not long now!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline.
Thanks Miss Harvey, I was at the video conference on the 5th of March. Do you have any advice for anyone who want to be a writer?
I love your books Jacqueline and I know everyone probably says that to you everyday but I don`t know what else to say since I LOVE THEM!
Thanks Abby – you’re very kind!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi,
I have a book expo at school and I have chosen this book Alice-Miranda in Paris and I need to make a speech and I have terrible stage fright and I can’t think of what do wright I HAVE NOT EVEN FINISHED THE BOOK YET!!!!!!
Soo I’m blank.
Kind regards,
Molly
Hi Molly,
I always find it easier to stand up on stage if I know what I’m going to talk about. Seeing that your book expo is on next Tuesday, it might be the best idea to finish reading the book – you may then have more of idea on what to talk about.
Best wishes and good luck,
Jacqueline.
Dear Jacqueline
I am your biggest fan of your books. i started reading them on my ninth birthday and the book was CR pet day disaster.I have read them ever science and i was wondering if you could tell me the next AM and Cr books are as I need to inform my mum what they are.she won’tget me them until at least six months later.All the best,keep writing.
Sophie Rose
Hi Sophie Rose,
Thanks for your message. I’m just about to put the final touches to Alice-Miranda in China. It has a really interesting story line that I’m pulling together all the twist and turns now. The book is released on 1 September 2016.
Clementine Rose and the Paris Puzzle is now being printed and it will be in bookshops on 1 July 2016.
I hope you enjoy them.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline.
hi miss harvey
when does the next alice-miranda book come out? I love your books!!!
Hi Amy,
Alice-Miranda in China is released on 1 September 2016. But there’s a lot of work to be done before it’s in the bookshops. I’m pulling together the final story line now and it will be off to my editor in a week or so. It always takes a few months for editing, proof reading and printing. By the time it is in bookshops, I’ll almost be finished the next Alice-Miranda adventure.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline.
I am going with my BFF. CAN’T WAIT LOL
I look forward to seeing you.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline.
hi my name is Isabella im 9 yrs old turning 10 you should remember seeing my dad mervyn at the Brisbane airport. btw he was coming from his work in perth he does mining so just stay happy and keep writing your very intresting books btw happy easter
Hi Isabella,
I met your dad outside Perth airport yesterday morning. He was on his way home to Brisbane and I had just arrived in Perth from Sydney. We were waiting for a bus to transfer to the other terminal. He told me you were a really keen reader. If you enjoy mysteries and adventures, you might like the Alice-Miranda stories. If you sign up for my newsletter, you can get all the news about where I will be travelling to in Australia and about books and there are competitions too. Maybe I’ll meet you somewhere one day too :). Have a great school holiday.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi Isabella,
Thats really interesting! My dad is a miner too! I wonder if they have worked together before?
From,
Alicia
Hi Jacqueline Harvey
I am at my Grandma’s house at the sunny coast.
today we went swimming it was great
how are your holidays going?
from Harriet
Thanks Jacqueline,
you are very helpful
Molly
Hi I have been wondering since you came to my school when did you start writing books and is it hard to think what to write in the next xoxo
Hi Eliza,
My first book was published in 2003, but I was still working full-time as a Deputy Head of a school until 2012. I started writing Alice-Miranda in 2008, with the first Alice-Miranda book coming out in February 2010. I don’t have too many problems thinking up the plots to the stories – I feel Alice-Miranda is standing behind me telling me what to write!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline.
Hi Miss Harvey,
I’m only new to reading Alice-Miranda books. I’m enjoying the books so much. I’ve read lots of books, but I think Alice-Miranda is the best. I’m only up to chapter 32 in book 1. My Nanna gave it to me last week for Easter. I can’t wait to read more of her adventures.
Good luck writing.
from Layla
Hi Layla,
I always love to hear from new readers of Alice-Miranda and Clementine Rose and thank you for your comments. I hope you continue to enjoy the books; many readers pick up the first one and don’t put them down until they finish the latest one.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline.
Dear Mrs. Havey,
Thank you for replying to my last comment:-)
My family and I really enjoyed meeting you as well… It was great fun!!
I am just in the middle of reading AM shows the way for the fourth time … I love the books so much and always will, I don’t think there’s any chance of me “growing out of the books”.! I really can’t wait for the next AM book… from what you have said about it, it sounds really good and I can’t wait to discover the really cute Lucinta moments!!!!!!!
Thanks for the Easter wishes and I hope you had a great one too.
From a MASSIVE Jacqueline Harvey, AM + CR fan
Denae.x
Hi Ms Harvey,
All the best on finishing AM in China!!
Love from Denae.x
Hi Eliza
did you know that Jacqueline’s first book was called Code name Mr Wright
I hope this is helpful to you?
Harriet
Hello Jacqueline,
I really enjoyed your visit to St Hildas in Perth.I got your book today with my birthday money.The book was Alice Miranda to the rescue autographed edition.hope you write more.From Meg
Hi Meg,
Thank you for your kind words and I hope you enjoy the story. I was out and about signing some copies on Saturday morning so it sounds like you managed to get one of those :).
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi Jacqueline Harvey,
I was wondering why it said in the Alice Miranda diary that on the first of April a new Clementine Rose book would come out but it has not yet come out?
I LOVE YOUR BOOKS!!
Hannah
Hi Hannah,
Unfortunately, we had a bit of a reschedule for Clemmie books for the year – so the next one is due 1 July. We had decided to do two Clementine books at the end of last year but the diary had already been printed saying there would be three.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi Jacqueline Harvey,
Thanks, I can’t wait for the book to come out in July.
Hannah
Hi Jacqueline,
I am new to your website so this is my first time. I was just wondering if you are making an Alice-Maranda book 14? if so when is coming out? I love your books so much that I stoped reading another series to find out what happens in Alice-Miranda to the rescue! I was also wondering if you could write a Alice-Miranda book about them going to Henley Beach, Adelaide SA, and make some friends called Nauli Blossom Bluebell Middleton-Moat Snape. Elysia Carissa Iris Mickelson-Mcullah Lowther and Aliyah Jemma Marigold Mickelson-Mohr O’Shea. Those three are hippies and show Alice-Miranda, her friends, around. I know this may not happen but I would love for you to maybe have some of this information in one of your Alice-Miranda books? Any way, in short I LOVE how you write.
Thanks!
Bye for now!
Hi Lilly,
You have made my day! What a beautiful comment and I love your ideas. I can’t promise anything but I’m always looking for great names and new stories. Hippies at Henley could be a lot of fun! I will be visiting South Australia later in the year so keep an eye on the website or make sure you sign up to the newsletter to find out when and where I will be!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
thank you xxxxxx
Hi Jacqueline!
Wow! Thats exciting news! I told my mum about how you travel everywhere and my mum thinks your very lucky.
Anyway, i hope you have a happy and safe trip and make more books! Also, hows Alice Miranda at China going? I wonder if youll write an Alice Miranda at Perth….
Good luck!
P.S do you know where all the mini mags come from? I have one but i dont know which shop it is from because my friend gave it to me
Hi Maryam,
Yes I am fortunate to travel so much (but it can be a bit tiring too!). I need to get cracking on AM in China and have the draft finished by Thursday of this week. The mini mags are available in lots of different shops but I’m afraid I couldn’t tell you exactly where.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi again,
sorry I forgot to add that I am your biggest fan!!!! I first started reading the Alice-Miranda books when I was 11 . I was camping and I had borrowed one of them from the library, once I started reading it I couldn’t put it down!!! Then last year I went camping again and was reading one of our Alice-Miranda books! how CRAZY!!
I LOVE YOUR WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bye (please reply to my comments)
Thanks Lilly – you are very kind.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi jacqueline!
Wow! Thats exciting news! I have 2 cousins in perth but they are both quite young. I have two questions:
-How do you think of all those mysteries?
-Do you know where i could get those mini mags?
Thanks!
Hi Maryam,
You found one didn’t you? Hope so, otherwise let me know. I come up with mysteries a lot of the time by just asking myself, ‘What if?’ I have lots of strange ideas and I’m always on the lookout for interesting or weird or funny things that have happened in real life that I can use in a story too.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi jacqueline!
Yes, at last i found one!
Thanks xxx
I can not believe my luck. I love you Jacqueline.
Thank you Hannah – you are very sweet xx
Good luck Ms Harvey! Hope you have fun, really wish I could be there.
Kind regards, Hannah.
Hi Hannah,
I had lots of fun in Perth!

I have read them all but still for preasents and birthdays i am eager to get them, Thanks for being a great author

From Denae
Dear jacqueline,
I LOVE your books!! If anyone doesn’t like them then they must be crazy! I read my first one when i was 8. I finished reading all of them(except the AM to the rescue-it wasn’t out yet) when i was 9 and now i am reading them all again(i am ten). I wanted to ask when the new series will be out? I heard the main characters were going to be twins? And how are you going with your AM at china?
Never stop what you do Jacqueline because it is AWESOME!!!!!!
Hi Maryam,
Thanks for your kind words – I’m so pleased you’re enjoying the books. I am hoping to have the new series out in November next year but it might be a little after that depending on my workload for the next few months. I really want it to be amazing so I am going to have to work super hard on it too. Yes there are twins. I haven’t finished AM in China yet but it’s close – about a week to go I think.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi jacqueline!
Thanks for letting me know about when the series will be out.
I have a question….
Which series is more popular? AM or CR?
Thanks for doing what you do, its awesome!
Hi Maryam,
Both series are very popular but Alice-Miranda has sold more books but she has also been out for almost 2 and a half years longer than Clemmie.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
We are aiming to have the new series out next year in November but there is a lot to be done before then!
Dear miss Harvey I was the most excited in All Hallows’ since my teacher saide that you were coming.I HAVE LOVED AM SINCE I started reading them .I started reading them when I was 5.I have LOVED them all.

Hi Saboor,
I’m still thinking about the next books. Clemmie will likely involve a wedding and AM might go home for a little while. We’ve only had one book at her house. Thanks for your kind words – I am thrilled that you’re still enjoying the stories. I can’t wait to see what you think of AM in China (if I ever get it finished!).
Hope to meet you too one day – it was lovely meeting your sister.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
sorry there was a spelling error and it somehow changed my name from Lilly to Lucy! sorry for the mix up
so i am the one who said that I am 12! so not Lucy but Lilly
Hi Jacqueline,
don’t know if you got my comment on how I have recently finished Alice-Miranda to the Rescue, but I decided to double check. What I wrote was that you have now inspired me to become an author when I am older. I have written a few small novels in my spare time and have been loving it!!! So, you are my hero/idol and I LOVE YOUR WRITING SOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!! I am the girl who suggested that you write a book about Hippies at Henley. You are the best writer ever. I am now 12 and going to high school next year, my sister says that I will love English but what I want to know is if you enjoyed English in high school? Anyway, you are AWESOME and I will talk to you soon.
Bye for now 🙂
Lilly 😉 🙂
PS. I just wanted to know if you mind that I call you from your first name instead of Miss Harvey.
Bye. 🙂
Hi Lilly,
Thanks for you very kind comments. It makes me so happy to know that you are thinking about becoming a writer too! I wish I’d been able to talk to my writing idols when I was a child – perhaps I would have given things a go a lot sooner. I LOVED English when I was in high school. In fact, I found all of my high school reports on the weekend when I was doing a clear up of my study and I chuckled at the English comments – many of which said that I showed promise as a writer (who knew where that would lead!).
Keep up your writing – and my advice would be keep a look out for some competitions to enter – they’ll give you a focus.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline (and yes it’s fine to call me that!)
thank you Jacqueline 🙂
Hi Denae
what about AM and the runaway circus?
or CR and the lost treasure?
from Harriet.
Dear Ms Harvey,
On the 5th of April I attended your video conference. I was wondering if you had any advice for anyone who wants to become a writer?
Hi Nuha,
One of the things you need to do is keep a notebook and write down all the funny, silly, interesting etc things you see as that will help you keep track of ideas. I would also enter competitions as that’s a great way to focus your work and make sure that you finish things. I have some writing tips on my website under the teachers tab.
Best wishes with your goals,
Jacqueline
Hi Jacqueline,
I was just wondering if you knew how long you were keeping on writing new Alice-Miranda books, or if you we’re waiting for a sign to stop. In one of your replies you said that you were coming to SA later in the year, I signed up for the newsletter but you haven’t said if you were coming to SA later in the year. I was also wondering if you were going somewhere unusual and different for future Alice-Miranda books?
How many series or single books have you written and could you tell me some of them so that I could look into finding a copy to read. One last thing, what are the age groups you write for, because I was curious to see if you had any higher levelled novels for me to read.
Thanks
Bye for now,
Lilly
Hi Lilly,
I have always thought that Alice-Miranda would tell me when the time is right to stop. That might sound silly but I think if the thought of writing another adventure filled my heart with dread instead of joy then that might be the right time to have a break. But that isn’t how I feel yet so there will be many more books to come. After AM in China she is going to have an adventure at home but then after that, who knows. I’ve only written AM and Clementine Rose as well as another series called the Code Name series but they are harder to find these days and a picture book called The Sound of the Sea. I am writing a new series later this year.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Thanks 🙂
Dear Denae
what about CM and the run away circus or AM and the lost tresure?

P.S how old are you?

from Harriet
Thanks Harriet!
Hello, dear Mrs.Harvey!
It is Haleema Mangal, and I am very pleased to make your acquaintance! You’re simply an amazing author. I was wondering if you’d like to come to my school? We have had an author visit before, but I’m sure your visit will hit the spotlight. My school is Al-Faisal College, Auburn Road, Auburn and I would LOVE if you came! It would be nice seeing you again and having my books signed.
I look forward to your reply,
Haleema Mangal.

Hi Haleema,
I’d love to visit your school. Perhaps you can ask your librarian to get in touch through my website.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hi Miss Harvey. I was absolutely overjoyed when I discovered you had a blog, I’ve been a long-term fan of the Alice-Miranda series, and would you believe that I’m 15 going on 16 and still reading? I can’t imagine I’ll ever stop. I adored reading Alice-Miranda to the Rescue and I can hardly wait for Alice-Miranda in China, especially when I heard Jacinta would have a little part in it as well.
I have always felt a connection to Jacinta, she’s such a wonderful girl. I can really relate to how blunt and mischievous she is and my heart went out to her in the first few books. I still have the page from the first book bookmarked when Alice-Miranda said Jacinta wasn’t a bad girl, she was simply lonely, and I really love that moment. I can’t imagine being dropped off at a boarding school at the tender age of seven because my parents couldn’t care enough to take care of me. And then her having little to no friends until a child with cascading curls and a bright outlook just came up to her with a big smile and an open mind. All things considered, I think Jacinta turned out awesome. Gosh I love that girl 🙂
Goodness I went on a bit of a tangent there. Sorry about that. But truly, I really love the AM series and I don’t think I will ever stop reading it, even when I enter my twenties and my friends begin giving me weird looks due to my reading a children’s book aimed towards twelve year olds. Gosh. it’s not my fault you’re such a fabulous writer, making me connect to such realistic. fictional characters.
I wish you the best for the coming years, and I pray the books don’t stop at 16.
All the very best
Lucyana
(P.S. I knew from the minute Jacinta tripped over him in the field there was going to be a spark between them. I knew it, I knew it, I KNEW IT ^_^)
(P.P.S: I’m guessing I’m the thousandth Lucinta fan you’ve heard from, Miss Harvey :)).
Hi Lucyana,
I love that you’re still reading the books – and you’re certainly not my oldest fan. I love Jacinta too and I think she’s turned out pretty well all things considered. She has quite a big role in China and Lucas is there too – although I have to say that she’s feeling a bit mixed up about him to start with.There is a big first in the story which I think is absolutely adorable. Please don’t feel as if you have to stop reading the books ever! I will write more than 16 that’s for sure. As the television series was officially announced last week, I hope the demand from readers will be even stronger.
Have you signed up for the newsletter too? It comes out once a month and I also send emails when I’m going to be touring.
Best wishes (and enjoy your upcoming holidays),
Jacqueline
Hi Ms Harvey
I promise you I won’t stop reading the books for a very long time, and I am also aware of Jacinta’s large part in the next book. How fitting that she and Alice-Miranda joined a family of acrobats 🙂 Uh-oh, a hiccup in the fledgling romance… Oh well, a romance can’t be without a few bumps along the way, I just know things will turn out well for them. I am so excited to hear you’re going to write more than 16! I think this series is my absolute favourite and I really hope the demand from readers gets stronger as well 🙂
Have I signed up for the newsletter? Darn, i can’t say that I have…. I’m going to go do that 🙂
Best wishes (and don’t worry, I will enjoy my holidays :))
Lucyana
(P.S. Today a group of my dance friends went to a primary school to teach years 1 to 6 some dancing, and there was this part where we all went in a circle and sent some kids in to do tricks in the middle and this little nine year old girl fell into a huge line of backward tumbling ending with an absolutely amazing back tuck and wow, I was astounded. I frankly imagined Alice-Miranda and her friends in that circle dancing around and frankly having a most wonderful time :))
Sounds like you met a real life Jacinta! Hope the sun is shining wherever you are.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
