Hello, lovely people!
Just a quick update from the Jodi Taylor Shop and JodiWorld HQ. There’s a lot happening in our corner of the multiverse, so grab a cuppa (or perhaps something stronger, depending on your day) and let me fill you in.
A Murder Out of Time — Last Few Tickets Remaining!
First things first - if you haven’t yet secured your place at A Murder Out of Time - our rather splendid murder mystery event and book launch for Out of Time - now is absolutely the moment. We only have a literal handful of tickets left.
The event takes place on Saturday 28th September at the Leonardo Hotel, Cheltenham. There’ll be a scrumptious afternoon tea, some sleuthing, socialising, signed books, and quite possibly some terrible puns. I do need to give final numbers to the hotel by the end of July, so if you’ve been dithering - now’s the time! You can grab tickets and find out all the details here:

New Murder Mystery Merchandise Now Live!
Because we love a bit of themed merch, we’ve also launched a whole new range to go with A Murder Out of Time. From T-shirts to Vests and Sweatshirts, all with suitably mysterious flair, you can find everything here:

Signed Companion Guides — Almost Gone!
Next up: the Chronicles of St Mary’s Companion Guide - signed copies.
After a bit of a whirlwind (thank you all for your patience!), we believe everyone who ordered one has now received theirs. The response was overwhelming - we had to order more, and even those have nearly all sold out.
But don’t panic - we’ll be getting more signed at the Cheltenham event in September, so there will be fresh stock shipping out in early October. You can still order though, but your order will stay in the system until more become available in early October.
Multiverse of St Mary’s Anniversary Party — And a T-Shirt to Prove It!
Our Multiverse of St Mary’s Facebook group just celebrated its anniversary in suitably chaotic style. Our Director, Dr Frank Edward Wells himself has confirmed it was one of the busiest gatherings we’ve had!
Virtual prizes were won - including a certain T-shirt that’s already become a fan favourite. By popular demand, it’s now available to all:
"I went to the Cretaceous and all I got was this rash!"
Frankly, I feel that sums up most jumps rather well.
Diversity Range Relaunched - Muchness Included
We’re also thrilled to relaunch our Diversity Range - with mottos provided by members of the Jodi Taylor Fans and Readers Group. They’re bold, they’re brilliant, and frankly, some of them made me laugh out loud.
My personal favourite?
"A fandom as Diverse as Markham’s Diseased Immune System."
Beautifully put. Possibly contagious.

And Finally…
I do hope you’re all surviving this summer heatwave without melting entirely.
Ice-cream, fans on full blast, and frequent tea breaks seem to be the order of the day here.
Thank you, as always, for supporting Jodi Taylor Shop and for being part of this brilliantly bonkers community. I really can’t wait to see so many of you in Cheltenham this September for A Murder Out of Time. It’s going to be a good one.
