Ohmigod I WON!! I am now 'Best Erotic Writer' courtesy of Scarlet magazine!!! I had absolutely no idea that I was going to get the Award - in fact I was convinced I hadn't because my publisher texted just before and said not to worry because 'just being nominated was the most important thing..' and we were sitting miles from the stage - and there were no cameras trained on our table (the event was being filmed for a Channel 5 documentary).
But my name was read out and I am now staring with enormous pride at my mantelpiece where my trophy is displayed in all its glory! A HUGE thank you to everyone who voted - I'm very grateful and still on Cloud 9....
Had lots of giggles on the Alan Titchmarsh show last Friday - I'm on again next Tues 16th Oct - and Patrick and I were VERY excited to be in the audience for 'Strictly Come Dancing' last Saturday (fave prog). I'd rather eat my own feet than perform in the show though - I think they're all incredibly brave. I'd eat any of those nasties in the jungle like a shot (I mean the witchetty grubs not the other contestants) but quick-stepping before Arlene would make me wobble all week. Come to think of it, I do that anyway..must stop enjoying pies immediately. Well maybe just one to celebrate....
Love Julie x
