That might give hope to every self-published author reading your blog.<br /><br />Bye for now<br />Catherine<br />www.pengridion.co.ukCatherine Cooperhttp://www.pengridion.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112025224383333087.post-90967671823074026812011-08-04T22:48:08.832+01:002011-08-04T22:48:08.832+01:00That is absolutely brilliant, Catherine - what a w...That is absolutely brilliant, Catherine - what a wonderful story, and how excited you must be!

I've just read your comment above.
I wa...Hello<br /><br />I've just read your comment above.<br />I was last years winner of the Brit Writers Awards. My book, The Golden Acorn scooped two awards, the first was for 'Best Story for Children' and I then went on to be awarded 'Best Writer of 2010'. A year has passed since I won the awards so I thought you might like an update. The full press releases can be found on my website at www.pengridion.co.uk but in short, my book went to the Frankfurt, Bologna and London Book Fairs and is now available world wide in several languages. The biggest event was earlier this year when a Hollywood film company approached us. We've now signed the film rights and hopefully, in the not too distant future, I'll be able to see my book on the big screen.<br /><br />It's been quite a journey... my publishers have a headline for me... From Self-Published to Hollywood in 18 months! You can read the full story of my journey on my website.<br /><br />I wish everyone who has entered this year's Brit Writers' Awards the very best luck. I'll be at the award ceremony in October so if you are reading this and you get through to the final please come and say hello.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />Catherine Cooper<br />www.pengridion.co.ukCatherine Cooperhttp://www.pengridion.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
