2008 MBFR FINALISTS ANNOUNCED....
Woo! The moment we’ve all been waiting for… The 100 finalists in the 2008 My Best Friend Rocks comp have just been announced in May 1st issue of Mizz mag. Letters have now been sent to the lucky 100, who will be joining me along with their best friends and mums, for the Ultimate Friendship Festival in London on July 6th.
If you are a winner… WELL DONE!!! I can’t wait to see you in July.
If you haven’t been lucky this time, don’t be sad – I loved ALL the amazing entries. There were many HUNDREDS of them and it was soooo tough to choose just 100 finalists, but with lots of help from MIZZ and CHILDLINE, we did our best. If you are not one of the finalists, remember that you are still a friend in a million, because you took the time and effort to create an imaginative, heartfelt entry for your BFF. And don’t forget that we’ll be running the comp again next spring, so you can get thinking and try again then!
Thanks to ALL of you who entered. MBFR is all about celebrating friendship, and anything that does that is COOL. Whether you entered or not, tell your BF how much she means to you… today!

FRIENDS FOREVER!!!!
Hey everyone! I’m back from my holiday in the Lakes and ready to get stuck into the new book. It’s a brand new project, and top secret for now – I’ll tell you more soon, I promise!
As well as writing, I have been busy this week judging MY BEST FRIEND ROCKS. There’ve been entries that made me laugh, entries that made me cry, entries so creative and cool I’d like to stick them on my pinboard for inspiration… Well done to all who entered. We’re still judging, but the 100 finalists will be announced in May 1st issue of MIZZ magazine, with letters to confirm this following soon after. I can’t wait to meet those finalists and their friends at THE ULTIMATE FRIENDSHIP FESTIVAL in London on July 6th…
Whether you entered or not, now is a perfect time to tell your friends just how special they are to you. My best friend Sheena has just gone to live overseas, and I’m missing her like crazy… but I know we won’t lose touch, because it’d take more than the Mediterannean Sea to come between us! If you’re reading this Sheena, I love ya… always.
So… what’s the coolest thing a friend has ever done for you? Or the craziest way you’ve shown a mate how much you cared? Let me know… this is your chance to tell your mate online just how much you care!
