LOTS of news today (I told you, I kept promising, and here it finally is).  First up, as previously announced, I have a new adult novel called The Crane Wife coming out in April in the UK and Australia/NZ.  Want to see the cover?  It's here.

But in even BIGGER news, I can now announce that that's not the only book I'll have out next year.  In September 2013, I'll be publishing a brand new, big YA novel called...  drum roll... More Than This.  And for the first time ever, it's being published simultaneously in the US, the UK, Australia and New Zealand. 

I told you I've been busy.

There's also some cool news that A Monster Calls has won both the Oldham Book Award and the Stockport Book Award, which is great.  And finally, just a big hello to Kyle from Houston, who wrote me a fantastic handwritten letter, but didn't include a return address to write back to.  So I hope he sees this.

By the way, if you want to write me a letter, all you have to do is open the front of a book of mine in whatever country you live and write to me care of ("c/o") that publisher.  They forward the letters on to me, and I see them all.

Greetings to the new commenters and (even) more soon...
