Seraphina has been short-listed for the 2012 Cybil Award (YA SF/F category). What a wonderful honour, and lovely news to wake up to on the first day of the new year!

I’ve also seen Seraphina mentioned on a lot of year-end best-of-2012 lists, on a lot of blogs, all over the internets. More than I can keep track of or link to, alas, because I’d love to give you each a hug individually and say THANK YOU. This book has done as well as it has because of you – yes YOU! – and all your love and support. I really appreciate it.

And now, as ever: to work!
