The Victorian Premier's Reading Challenge has been launched for 2007 and I'm very excited, not only because the challenge is a fantastic way to encourage students to read, but because my books The Diva Series, Allie McGregor's True Colours, My Gran's Different, Tessa, Ferret Boy and Jamie's Star all made the list.
If you haven't been part of the Reading Challenge before and want to know more about it, you can check out the website - http://www.education.vic.gov.au/prc/
The program is to encourage students from Prep to Year 9 to read more.
Other states also have Premier's Reading Challenge, so check out their list and start reading. You'll find fantastic books and a few of mine too.

More Divas...
Big news! black dog books will publish four more books in the Diva series, with the first two books, Girls' Stuff and Girls At Sea being released in April. And am I excited! Writing these books has been heaps of fun, so I was thrilled when I was asked to write more. I love Mickey and Skye and even have soft spot for Coco - or Mini-Freak.
All four books are now with Karen my editor, so the editing process is about to begin.
I love this stage as the books become stronger each time we work on them.
I can also tell you the titles of books 7 & 8 in the series, which come out in July - Drama Queen and Girls Go Extreme.
