If you remember Mil Millington’s name from his hilarious Things My Girlfriend and I Have Argued About page, you’ll probably be pleased to know that his first novel is one of the UK’s five best debut novels of the year.
Millington now also writes a weekly column for a newspaper; his column and book deal both came about because the right people found and read his site, which is really neat.

Update, January 2012: there’s a new link for Things My Girlfriend and I Have Argued About (mil-millington.com), but I’m leaving the old one above intact for posterity’s sake.
