The Book of the Crow

Should 'the book of the crow' series be mentioned?

The list of her works seems very random at the moment. I'm expanding it to include all of her books (including The Book of the Crow series), and creating a separate awards section. -- KittyRainbow 02:01, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Grammar

I'm not sure, but i think that this sentence is somehow gramatically incorrect: She began writing poetry, and wrote poems that were published in several anthologies. Kitty 23:14, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure that it's grammatically incorrect, but it certainly sounds... awkward. And, err, looking at the single reference for this page, I think I know why - this whole article seems to have been taken from there, with only minor rephrasing. Oh dear. We need to get some more references in here, expand and rewrite this thing. =/ -- KittyRainbow 02:01, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

ETA: And that reference seems to be wrong about at least two facts... Firstly, her book is called The Candle Man, not The Candle; and secondly, it won a Tir na n-Og Award in 1995, not 2002. So it's not even reliable! What else in this article could be wrong because of it...? -- KittyRainbow 02:35, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I could ad the biography i wrote about her for school, and my sources.--Kitty 21:13, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Awards source?

Both her website and several book selling pages mention that "Her futuristic novel Incarceron was published to widespread praise in 2007, winning the Mythopoeic Society of America’s Children’s Fiction Award and selected by The Times as its Children’s Book of the Year. The sequel, Sapphique, was published in September 2008." However it seems that the book was only a *finalist* of the Mythopoeic Society of America’s Children’s Fiction Award, and it doesn't seem listed at all on "New York Times Notable Children's Books of 2007" but I'm honestly not sure if that's what is meant (technically The Times can refer to a couple different sources, and is notable books the same as "book of the year"?)
