From LBGT History Month Uk;

Lesbian poet Carol Ann Duffy has been announced as the UK first ever female Poet Laureate. Duffy, 53, is thought to be the most widely read living poet in the English language.

Of course I’ve never heard of her, but I’m a heathen.

I had a favourable nibble from the latest agent submission – the agent requested the full manuscript of Junction X so I sent it off yesterday. Fingers crossed please!

I had a good few entries to the "take a photo of Transgressions” competition but the best was the first entry

Hugely embarrassingly I have lost the email with this in it so I can’t remember who this belongs to. If it’s yours please let me know and I’ll post your copy of the book asap.

I have a lot of copies to post out, so if you haven’t received yours yet, don’t panic. I have limited income remember and postage is expensive.

Good luck with the agent! Fingers crossed - until I have to uncross them, because typing is a bit weird. :)

*snort* I love that entry! :D

You must be so proud of everything coming together - I keep nattering my housemate's ear off about my LJ writing mentor who has made good in the Romance publishing world!

Transgressions arrived this morning. *is excited*

Carol Ann Duffy does excellent fic and poems for kids. My daughter saw her a couple of years ago at a writing workshop for young teens. I was more excited than she was.

Oh you must read Duffy's The World's Wife - it's wonderfully funny! And good luck with the agent.
