Cristin Terrill’s debut novel on the shelves

001

I was so pleased when I spotted Cristin Terrill’s debut novel All Our Yesterdays  (Bloomsbury, 2013) on the shelves in Waterstones’ YA section, in Greenwich the other day. Here’s a pic I took on my phone. Cristin took part in the first Novelists’ Club six-month course back in 2009. I remember her incredible dedication to writing 750 words a day, EVERY day. It’s clearly paid off. Congratulations, Cristin!

It will be published on Aug 1 in the UK (Bloomsbury)  and in the autumn in the US (Disney-Hyperion).  It’s described as “A brilliantly brain-warping thriller and a love story that leaps back and forth in time – All Our Yesterdays is an amazing first novel, perfect for fans of The Hunger Games.” Click here to pre-order it on Amazon.

Cristin’s email says:  “Yours was the first creative writing class/critique group I was ever a part of, and it was definitely a big confidence builder for me, so thank you!”

Also one of the six participant on the same course was Annemarie Neary. Her novel A Parachute in the Lime Tree came out in the UK and Ireland last year. ‘Tense, edgy, beautifully written. I wouldn’t be surprised if it got nominated for a handful of prizes’  (Books Monthly, UK). Click here to buy Annemarie’s book.
