I won the GG!!!

November 17, 2009 · Posted in The Mistress of Nothing 

Today it was announced that I have won the Governor General’s Literary Award for Fiction with ‘The Mistress of Nothing’.

This is such a huge huge honour and, I’ll admit, a complete and wonderful surprise.

More when I have time – but thanks to all for the tweets, mails, calls, and FB comments so far.  I really appreciate it.

    Congratulations. I’m always so happy to see an actual story win one of the Canadian prizes.
