Totally chuffed about making the shortlist for the Sussex Coast School’s Amazing Book Awards. Which means I get to dress up in a nice frock and go to the awards night in Worthing in July.
I’m particularly pleased it’s being sponsored by the Sussex Police, because the very first prize I ever won was for a Sussex Police competition when I was at primary school in Haywards Heath. So perhaps it’s thanks to them that I’ve ever had the confidence to write a book at all.
