Snowbooks shortlisted for Independent Publisher Nibbie!
posted by Emma on April 24, 2008 04:40 PM
Wheeeee! We're on the shortlist for the Independent Publisher Nibbie this year!
Also on the shortlist are:
- Atlantic Books
- Michael O'Mara
- Quercus
- Summersdale
Wow, tough list. So good luck to us all. Especially us and Summersdale!
That means that I can definitely buy a new frock, because we're up for two Nibbies now - this and the Innovation one for our XSL work. I think I will buy this one plus accessories. Do you think it's too plain? It's a lot of money but I figure I can wear it in the daytime too, and possibly when I'm not pregnant too, even though I might stretch the fabric a bit!
Very very happy. Prizes are nice.

Very well done - congrats from all (well 'both') of us at Fidra.
Not sure about the dress though. Something a bit more glitzy perhaps?

To Rob, re: parping trumpet photo that you've put on this post.
I tried not to blow my own trumpet. I tried to deliver the facts in an impartial, objective fashion. I do not think that I parped on in any way.
Can I have a slightly bigger trumpet, though?

Congratulations!

If you have the cleavage, go for that dress. It will look fab. x

Sue, I can categorically say that, for once in my life, cleavage is NOT a problem. Thanks! x

Congrats on the shortlisting - and yes, you must get that dress. Gorgeous!

Congratulations! Great news!
(And the dress is a lovely colour.)

Very good news.
And there's no such thing as a dress that's too plain!

Many congratulations on being short-listed - and best of luck on the night.
What lovely clothes! Hadn't come across Isabella Oliver before. Her stuff looks really good.
