Author, brilliant; publisher, not.

A quote from an article, ‘Author, 14, lands publishing deal’ in The Age on Friday.
Children’s Publisher Lisa Berryman said she had to keep reminding herself that Alexandra had written the book when she was just 13. “Alex’s brilliance literally leapt off the page,” she said.

  1. Hmmm no comments on this blog...?
    Perhaps if I say: 'Lego is more fun than transformers, and (for the connoisseur) Meccano is way more fun than Leggo!'... there, that should get some comments going :)

  6. Say What? Stupid computer loged into blogger with my ebay account details. So I deleted the comment.
