This is one of the highlights of my year &#8211; and even more so this year as I was one of the shortlisted authors.

The award went to my friend Jane Lovering &#8211; who writes funny, uplifting romances.\u00a0She certainly deserved to win.<\/p>\n<p>The evening was brilliant &#8211; a chance to catch up with friends and to celebrate some wonderful books and their equally fabulous authors. We writers spend a lot of time chained to our desks. We don&#8217;t get out that much.
