Surely not!

Christmas 2011 was terrific for us - time with family, friends, laughs and delicious food and drink. Now I'm ready to return to writing and - ahem - less food.
In fact, so determined am I to return to a slower lifestyle, we took down our Christmas tree today.

So I guess Christmas is done and dusted for another year, which is lucky as check out what greeted me at the supermarket earlier this afternoon...

Yep - an entire display of Easter stuff.

REALLY? It's still December people!

Sigh...

A huge thank you!

Phew - the Pan's Whisper Blog Tour is done and dusted.
Enormous thanks to Jenny at Walker Books and the fabulous bloggers who have been so warm, welcoming and generous.

I have bird issues! My new bird for my Christmas tree.

All aboard! Last stop on the Pan's Whisper Blog Tour...

Okay, so stops.
Today I'm visiting two places at once, because I can! I'm at Cherry Banana Split and Perth YA Fans Unite where I talk about the music I listen to when I write, developing characters and a few of my favourite Australian Young Adult novels.
Thanks to the lovely Anna for her brilliant questions.
Make sure you visit Perth YA Fans Unite to find out how you can win a copy of Pan's Whisper.

And yep,I'm late in blogging about this one, but hey, they are both WA blogs, so really, it's early afternoon!
