But…thank you to all you lovely people who voted for me. I
appreciate it. I was so pleased even to be shortlisted and am now feeling very
excited about what I may do with the manuscript in 2014.
Big congratulations to Fiona Sussman who did win with her
novel Sentenced. I will have to buy an e-reader, so I can enjoy her book when
it’s published.
I’m feeling very excited in general about 2014. There are
lots of wonderful creative projects on the horizon, including a new children’s novel
(I finished the first draft a couple of weeks ago), a novel for adults that I’ve
been working for years (about bonsai; they’re little trees), which I have also
finally finished the first draft of, and an exciting collaboration with my
friend, award-winning illustrator Deborah Hinde (this is her current best-seller, 10 Kooky Kiwis , isn't that cover gorgeous!). I can’t wait to get
started.
Here’s wishing you a creative and story-filled 2014.
Sarah
