..."These are heady days for Kavenna. First the birth of her second child; and, on Wednesday, the award of the Orange Prize for New Writers for her novel Inglorious. [...] Inglorious, Kavenna's Orange award-winning fiction debut, is, in fact, her eighth completed novel. It's just that no one wanted to publish the other seven - mainly, she admits, because they were unpublishable. They were written between the ages of 18 and 26 - a period she describes as "prolific but ghastly". "It took me so long to realise that they just weren't going to go anywhere. Thankfully, I've lost two of them - the computers they were on crashed, so that's a blessing. The others are just lying around somewhere.""
