Malarky Triumphs!
Oooh, what a night! I’ve been a devotee of Anakana Schofield’s Malarky since I first read it just over a year ago now, and so it was fantastic to be in the crowd tonight as Our Woman, the book and its author finally got the credit they’ve long-deserved. So pleased that Malarky was tonight awarded the 2013 Amazon First Novel Award. Sometimes it all works out all right. And sometimes you also end up with the most mind-blowing assortment of desserts in your lap, on a plate even, ready to eat. They were as good as they looked.
I loved this book and am so delighted to see it win! (And those desserts look fabulous…)

I share your enthusiasm. One of my favourite books of last year. Maybe THE favourite. Unaccountably thrilled…
Thank you all for your wonderful warmth and support and readership. The snacks were very very very good and the jokes were aplenty. Snacks & jokes & great company we were blessed. Plus a new back door for me ma.
