It was announced today that The Ask and the Answer was shortlisted for the Booktrust Teenage Prize.  Which is great!  I won it last year, so a very nice surprise to be shortlisted again.  And there's a nice thing in the Guardian where they interviewed me about it.  Good stuff!

Also good, starting today there are meant to be whacking great posters on train stations around the country for both The Knife of Never Letting Go and The Ask and the Answer.  I haven't seen one yet, but they were supposed to put one in my local station so I'm going out in a minute to check...
