... I entered a novel writing competition (one I'd blogged about here) and beat 600+ other entrants. As a result my novel 'Escape to the Country' will be published at the end of March.
Wow Patsy that is FANTASTIC news! Well done you - and I love that "quite pleased then" :-) I am so so thrilled for you and glad to see you're taking it all very calmly x
Hi Patsy .. I think that's wonderful - well done .. brilliant news .. keep writing I say - forget the running and the squeals!! Just such fun to watch though .. enjoy the weekend .. cheers Hilary
Patsy, patsy, patsy, yahooo, it's your year....I want your book....I was only thinking in our little shop the other day,,can't wait for Patsy to have her books published. Let this be one of many.....yippeee....
Dan, when I first got a mobile I didn't realise they autocorrected and sent quite a few texts signing myself pasty, so I can hardly complain about your single error.
Go, Gal, good job. well done, super news, thank goodness someone's got something to yip about for a change YIPPEE!
Erm, Tosh, would you just check out your interview technique? You can't do that kind of jumpyuppydownyrunnyoffythenbacky thing on radio and I spect you'll be on radio 4's Front Row within the year!
What fab, terrific and brilliant news Patsy. Hope you keep blogging about the whole experience too. Loved the video - hope you don't become too posh and famous to keep on sharing the competitions...
Thanks, Dave. If it made someone laugh then it was worth doing.
Tracy, can't see me ever becoming to posh and famous to blog.
Cheers, Maggie. You're right - every single blog or forum comment, tweet, email and phone call has been one of congratulations and good wishes. I appreciate every one of them.
Patsy, sorry I'm so late getting here. I just had to say this is bloody fantastic news and, soppy mare that I am, your video choked me up a teeny bit. I'm so happy for you :-)
