One Year Later: Donna Tartt - Poets & Writers, November 1, 2003
 Since Donna Tartt appeared on the cover of the November/December 2002 issue of Poets & Writers Magazine ("Murder in Mind" by Therese Eiben), she received the WH Smith Book Award for her second novel The Little Friend (Knopf, November 2002). Tartt received £5,000 (approximately $8,300). News of her winning the award came in mid-March, the day after she was shortlisted for the Orange Prize, an annual award honoring a novel by a woman written in English and published in the UK. (Valerie Martin won for Property). Bloomsbury, the UK publisher of The Little Friend, won the Expert Books Marketing Campaign of the Year at the British Book Awards. The Little Friend was published in paperback by Vintage Books in October.
