My novel Eyes of a Boy has been short listed for this year's Impress Novel Award. I am beyond thrilled as over the last four years, I've had two literary agents representing this novel and neither has been able to sell it as yet.
There have been ten novels short listed and the winner will be announced in December and the book published next year.
Thank you to all of you who reviewed the opening chapters of EYES OF A BOY. You really, really helped me gain a place on this short list.

Well done, pink rose. I remember reading Soul to Soul and enjoying it but I haven't read the opening to your potential prize winner. Good luck with the result and please let us know how you get on.

Thank you very much for your encouragement. I've been working on this book for a long time - four years at least and I've had my toe in the door of a very large publishing house with it. I've come close many times - it would be wonderful if this time my book made it! I will definitely keep you posted.

Apologies for writing this thread in the wrong section of the board. I had meant to write in the one below about Announcements, but once done I didn't know how to delete it.
