This Friday’s blogpost, my lovely followers, feels a little like deja-vu!
It is where a lot of us first became acquainted, isn’t it?
Remember this blogpost from March 9th?
That’s when I asked you all to comment on my black and white drawing of the map for the first book in the Kids of Kernow series- MAGICAL MOSSY IN BOSCASTLE– I wasn’t sure if it was child-friendly enough or just plain good enough, at all!
( In fact, I never did get around to crediting myself with it in Book 1, lol!)
You all gave me the confidence to continue & with you all following and supporting me- Book 1 was indeed published, along with my map, within the following 4 months & to date has sold nearly 400 copies & as an Author, I am gaining lots of votes to maybe be in with a chance of gaining an award as a well-being author.
( If you’d like to vote but haven’t yet, please see the clickable box on the home page )
What can I say?
Always dare to dream, people!
Then, most importantly, always follow your dreams, no matter what hic-cups you may encounter along the way! π
And here I am today, asking again for your encouragement and comments, as I have completed the map for the inside cover of Book 2 in the Kids of Kernow series…….
MOSSY CASTS A SPELL IN BUDE
I especially welcome comments from those of you who know Bude well……
The whole story takes place around the Sea Pool….have I missed anything important out?
Follow my doodlings here ….it took me the best part of a day!













I was beginning to go boss-eyed by this point & so tided everything away – deciding to cast a final eye over everything the next day……..which I did & actually decided to do some final tweeking – resulting in this final effort……………………





Well, there you have it!
If you or I can’t think of anything to change/enhance- it’ll get scanned tomorrow & off to Olli at Blue Poppy Publishing ready for him to do his magic & it’ll then, miraculously appear at the front of Book 2-which is still on course for being out in time for Christmas!
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR CONTINUING SUPPORT – IT MEANS THE WORLD!

Have you got the half tide cross I found that very interesting when I was little

No! I don’t think it’d actually be visible from the character’s viewpoint in the story – but thank you, for mentioning it! It is unique, isn’t it! π X
