What fantastic photos -- everyone looks incredibly glam! Congrats to all the winners.
It looks like a fantastic event. And I now understand Sue's 'red fried eggs'! Pretty!
Thanks for these brilliant photos of another spectacular Awards event.
Congratulations to the winners!
Thanks for sharing the photos.
Thanks for letting us share in the event through the great photos! Congratulations to all winners and short-listed authors.
Haha, I didn't realise my handbag had been 'papped'!
Thanks so much, everyone, for the lovely comments and congratulations. It was a magical moment I shall never forget. This morning I told my son to get out of bed, he had to be taken to school by an AWARD -WINNING AUTHOR.
Fantastic pictures. I'm green with envy that I didn't get to go. Oh well, maybe next year I'll get to don some fabulous outfits like this year's list did. Congratulations everyone who was short-listed, a wonderful achievement and bonus congrats to the winners!
Thanks so much for posting this so we can all share in the magic.
Congrats to all the winners and the shortlistees :o)
Lovely to see it all and well done to winners and those shortlisted.
I had a fabulous evening, thank you to all the organisers involved & congratulations to the winners - and those authors who were short listed.
Memo to self for next year: take fancy handbag, posh shoes... oh & try to write a good book!
I second Talli 'jealous I wasn't there' Roland! Looks like a really fabulous party. I WILL make it next year, I WILL!
Jill--hah! Did it get him out of bed any faster?
Congratulations to you, and to Elizabeth, Louise, Jojo, Josephine and Penny!
Once again, I felt it was a real privilege to be there. Having had nothing to do with it this year, I can say that the organisation was fantastic, and the new venue really lovely.
Congrats to the winners and short listed authors.
Looks like a good night had by all

I so wanted to be there that I can hardly bear to look at the pictures! It looks (and sounds) like a wonderful event. Congratulations to all the short-listers and winners and a huge round of applause for the oranisers! Well done everyone.
Congratulations to all the winners!
