Had a cheerful bit of news the other day. The Strange Affair of the Ethiopian Treasure Chest has been shortlisted for the Wishing Shelf Book Prize...
It's not exactly a vast and famous international competition -- but it has the great merit of being judged by children. The readers' panels are made up of children from London Schools, for the most part, and if they like a story set in rural West Wales then that's fine by me!
The winner of the competition will be announced in April. Watch this space.....
