CYA Conference for the WIN!
A thrilling week for me!
On Friday I flew to Brisbane for the 2011 CYA Conference. I’d heard so much about this conference over the past few years and have been keen to go, then this year I had a huge added incentive.
Back in June, I entered into the published authors section of the CYA writing competition. I was delighted a few weeks to go to learn my YA novel manuscript had been shortlisted.
Now, I’m thrilled to say that Jumping Through Hoops has won the published author section, and I loved being there at the conference to collect my award.
I had a fantastic time catching up with some real and online writing buddies and meeting some lovely new ones. As well as attending all the wonderful author sessions and a brilliant Brian Falkner workshop.
