OUR NEW COVER GIRL!
Monday 18th July 2011
This was officially THE hardest comp ever to judge… there were tons of entries and every one of them was gorgeous, cool and full of personality! It took a while, but our panel finally settled on the reader they felt was most like Skye from the Chocolate Box Girls… and I agreed! It was a little like watching Skye come to life!
Well done Grace W – your photos were great, and I think you’ll be a great model for the paperback version of Marshmallow Skye. (Possibly Summer’s Dream too, as Skye and Summer are twins!)
The official photoshoot will take place at the HQ of GirlTalk mag in London, later this month… and I am pretty sure Grace will enjoy her day in the spotlight!
I only wish everyone could be a winner… you were all AWESOME and if the results of this comp work out well, you never know… there may be more COVER GIRL comps in the future! I know what a positive, generous bunch you are, too, and I know you’ll be pleased for Grace. If you’re sad at missing your model-girl moment, nip over to the SUPER FANS SECRET PAGE# and try this month’s Superfan challenge to send in a pic of you ‘striking a pose’ – the best one will win a signed copy of STRIKE A POSE DAIZY STAR! (If you don’t know the secret password yet, sign up for the free email NEWSLETTER – there’s a clue in every issue!)
I’d better get back to work… I’m writing the next book in the series, Summer’s Dream, right now. And don’t forget to check out the Aug 4th issue of MIZZ mag to see if you’re one of the six shortlisted finalists for the MBFR 2011 Comp! What are you waiting for?

well done grace! i was going to enter but the closing date had gone :[ you r the perfect choice!!!!!!!!!:D
Hey Cathy! I went to see you at the Edinburgh Book festival yesterday! You were brill! I was the one that was in a blue pineapple jumper that said your bracelets were cool and I asked the question: “what’s your fave book that you’ve written?” You probably wont remember. I’ve been to see you at the festival for 3 years because your my fave author!
I had an idea because you write about friendship and real problems in the real world, you could maybe write about a girl who befriends someone who has autism. My little sis has autism and it would mean so much if you could take this idea on board.
Thanks and keep writing!!!
Love Ruth xx
PS Just to say (quickly before I ramble on) Marshmallow skye is awesome!!! It’s really good and quite spooky actually!! 🙂
I totally know what Cathy’s saying. I hope that I can model for Kady in Love Peace And Chocolate, because I’m mixed race.
Wow! Well done! She looks just how I imagined Skye to look! She looks really pretty and like a real model!
Well done Grace! Congrats, you look perfect. Seeing as you don’t have blonde hair, does that mean no matter what hair colour you have, everyone has a chance??!! Yay!
