I’m Big In England

Okay, maybe not ‘big’ per se…

Maybe not *this* big...

However, my query hook has made it into the Guardian’s Book Blog. (The Guardian is a Jolly Big newspaper in Lovely Ol’ England.)

“From “VI Warshawski meets Lucy and Ethel” to The Price, in which “two elves decide to defect from their kingdom and make new lives in a neighbouring land”, or The 15 Date Rule (“for astrophysicist Allie, falling in love is as easy as identifying the planet Venus”), it’s an eclectic mix of submissions, and Bransford has collected an impressive response rate from wannabe agents.”

The 15 Date Rule! That’s me! Something I wrote is being quoted in a BIG newspaper across the world! How freaking cool is that!!? It gives me a shot of hope when only a few days ago I felt a bit like a crash test dummy that had finally rounded that ‘last’ corner and slammed into the proverbial brick wall and was left to slide down, a mortifying tangle of limbs and bruises.

Thanks Guardian and thanks Nathan. This made my day. Oh heck, my week!
