As is customary, here's my round-up of professional whatnots in 2011:

two books published – Hour of Need in May (the last book of 'The Laws of Magic') and The Extinction Gambit in December (the first book of 'The Extraordinaires')
wrote two books ('The Extinction Gambit' and a top secret project which is to be published in April next year)
three short stories published
visited twenty schools for author talks, including two schools in Hong Kong
appeared at the Sydney Writers Festival, Somerset Literary Festival, Woodend Literary Festival and the Write Around the Murray Festival
started a blog
planned and researched for the continuation of 'The Extraordinaires'.

I'm sure I've forgotten things, but I think that sums it up. Happy New Year to you all!
