Meet Miss Subways on the BBC

Update #12 · Feb 28, 2013 · 2 comments

Hi Everyone,

Yes you read it correctly Miss Subways is on the BBC. Check it out here.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-21583380 

Amy Zimmer did a fantastic job in her interview with the BBC.

Secondly for those of you that asked for signed books. I apologize for not getting them in the mail yet. I am working on it and will have them off shortly. My daughter came three weeks early--which took us by surprise. I am still adjusting to being a mom.

all my best,

Fiona

Miss Subways Books

Update #11 · Jan 25, 2013 · comment

Hi Everyone,
Those of you who requested that your books be sent directly to you from the warehouse, should have gotten your books or be getting them in the next several days. If you bought a book and asked that I sign it and then mail it to you. Please be patient. The books have to come to me, I have to sign all of them and make trips to the post office. All of which takes time, I will be doing this in the next couple of weeks.

I am having a housewarming party tomorrow Saturday Jan 26th. If you are in NYC, and would like to stop by and celebrate my new home, get a book and meet some wonderful creative people, you are more than welcome. Please email me for more details.

Lastly if you haven't ordered a book and would like to, email me and I can set that up.
Stay warm,
Fiona

Hi Everyone,

If you would like me to sign your book. It will come to me in Brooklyn first, I will sign it and then mail it out to you. This will mean that your book will take longer to get to you (beginning of February) Please email me directly fionagardner@gmail.com if you prefer a signed book. Also make sure I have your most current address for mailing you the book.

Thanks so much,

Fiona

Book Delivery

Update #9 · Jan 2, 2013 · 4 comments

Hi Everyone,

My publisher has let me know today that books will be in the warehouse and ready to ship out 1/17--there have been delays that were not in my control. I am sorry that everyone has been waiting on books. Despite the long wait I think all of you will be really pleased with the book when it arrives. Amy Zimmer, my self , Jody our graphic designer, and Heather our managing editor, really put our heart and souls into this project. It was a tough journey and a long time in the making, but well worth it! We are grateful to each and everyone of you for believing in the project and helping us to make it happen.

Books shipped direct from the warehouse will arrive more quickly. However if you want me to sign your book, they will be shipped to me in NYC, and then be mailed out.

Happy 2013!

Fiona
