I mentioned Sophie's Secret here recently as part of 'The Next Big Thing' writers' blog and someone must have been listening. For my work-in-progress, a time-slip novel with a twist, has just been shortlisted for the Festival of Romance 2012 New Talent Award.
'New-ish!' I replied indignantly.
'Does that mean you'll get to wear a new dress?'
'Yes - and killing, I mean, killer heels.'
I think I can still hear her laughing... Anyway, click on the link and take a look at all the amazing people from the publishing industry who will be getting together in Bedford over the festival weekend. And in the meantime - did someone mention Botox?
