GIVING IN TO THE PRESSURE


I keep being asked why I haven't blogged my recent shortlisting in the 2009 CBCA Younger Readers category. Aren't you thrilled they ask? Oh yes. Very, very, very thrilled. Also astounded and humbled. But most of all, for once in my life, absolutely wordless.

You may be speachless but it is well deserved. I loved the book and I hope you win.

Have you seen a jump in sales since the shortlisting or is it too early to tell?

Well done and just think.... I knew you when.. ;)

I always find other people, their books and their web/blog sites,so much more interesting to blog about... and there are only seven days in the week :)

Congratulations, Sandy! It is a very big thing indeed, when a writer is lost for words. A gorgeous book so I'll have my fingers crossed for you when they announce the winners...
