Hi all,
Hope you're all well.
I've been on a wonderful trip to China but now I'm back and I wanted to say hi and let you know about some things coming up on my blog and my bit of good news.

First up, I've just posted an interview with Award winning author, Sophie McKenzie
http://talltalesandshortstories.blogspot.com/2010/10/interview-with-award-winning-author.html

Here are some things to look forward to...

* I have a great agent interview waiting in the wings.

* An interview with an award winning publisher and several of its authors.

* Details of a fantastic competition for aspiring writers.

* Debut author interviews and Award winning author interviews.

* Book reviews and all things Children's and YA fiction and non-fiction.

And finally, yesterday was the official launch and announcement of the winners of the Royal Mint 2012 Olympic 50p design competition. Some of you on facebook may have already seen my news but I was one of the winners!! Yay!! :D And my rather windswept picture was on the Sky News website

    I got back from my holiday and was thrown in at the deep end by having to get up at the crack of dawn to go and do a couple of live radio interviews about the win. That was an interesting experience!! So I'm still playing catch up with myself - I need a holiday to recover from how manic its been since I got back. ;) We also came back to a leaking water tank so trying to dry the house out too!!

    What a great idea Lou - I hadn't thought of that!! At the moment it's squeezed up against the wall behind the bed in the spare room.
