With regard to my previous post, I should have explained that I love and respect a great many "children's" and "young adult" books (not to mention having a large personal collection of them!) and that my resistance to the idea that Knife might be YA wasn't due to any lack of respect for that genre. It was more to do with my original ideas and expectations for the book, most of which didn't even make it onto paper anyway, so yeah, I really am a ninnyhammer that way.
So thanks ot all of you who wrote with encouragement and congratulations. I'm really thrilled about this opportunity and looking forward to seeing if and how it pans out...!

Going way way back - did you ever finish the X Files story? I remember there not being much of it, but enjoyed what there was.
On the subject of fairy books - have you read Tad Williams "War of the Flowers"? I highly recommend it. I would have changed a few things myself, but it was a great read.
