The first print run of my book has already sold out. Nana broke the news to us this morning. A second run has already been ordered, which apparently makes the first even more valuable, according to my mother. It's what authors and publishers long for. It means you've attained success and recognition and no-one can call you precocious or over-confident any more without making themselves seem stupid. I like that about it. I think I'll go to bed now without washing my face and looking in the mirror afterwards.

harriet seriously you should wash your face though. teenage pores are very sensitive and liable to become clogged and if you have a pizza face you won't even have the liberty of turning down men.
