Woo-hoo! My Favourite Book of last year just won the Newbery Award (which is a big deal. Like the Oscars of Children’s books).
It doesn’t hurt that the author is a really nice guy and blogger (and now Twitterer), which makes you feel like something nice just happened to someone you sort of know.
His blog post is here, but his rather-less-filtered and rather-more-sweary Twitter posts were fun too!

I've been telling stories forever. Luckily I grew up and people stopped calling them 'lies'.
I started earning money for my writing in newspapers and magazines, then business writing. I'm rediscovering the creative side these days.
This is where I share what I'm learning about writing...
...And other stuff about my life as a human, a mother, an ex-pat, a cook, a gardener, a knitter, and all the rest. I don't talk about being a wife much, because my husband's a bit shy.
