Jane Austen Book Awards!

What can one say, but Thank You to the Jane Austen judges: sincere thanks.

Speeches are just not me...  

I hate award ceremonies and all that overt gushing and full-on bluster. Besides, other than Pat Jackson my editor, who has admitted time and again at having forgotten to edit because he became so immersed in the story, which is a morale boost in itself.  But, I am for the rest of the process entirely alone in formatting for e-book and paperback editions, and the painting of my own covers.  
So that's it, me...
Now I'll get off the stage and get on with the rest of the show.








And.... I'm in good company on second award!
