It’s been over a year since I’ve written a blog post. In that year, a great deal has happened. One of the biggest things is that I now have two book deals!

Dreaming the Bear will be published by Oxford University Press in February 2016. Hospital High has been accepted by Lodestone Press, an imprint of independent publisher John Hunt. It will come out in late 2016/early 2017.

Both books are for young people, and both publishers feel my blog should be for young people, too. So the posts I write will be changing. They won’t be so much about how to write or the problems writers must overcome. They’ll be more about the stories I’m writing or have written and about me as a writer.

I want to take this opportunity to thank all my followers of this blog and I hope you’ll stay with me for the next bit of the journey…
