Illustration Reveal Number 1 – Book 3
The illustrations for Agnil and the Tree Spirits have arrived and they are absolutely gorgeous! Charlotte Moore has done a fantastic job and I hope everybody loves them as much as I do. To celebrate their arrival, I have decided to let you all have a sneak preview by revealing one of my favourites, which I think has a touch of Quentin Blake about its style. I’m a big fan of Quentin Blake, so I’m more than delighted about this! If you’d like to see more of Charlotte Moore’s work, you can visit her web site. Over the next few days, I hope to be able to post one or two more to give you a good flavour of what you’ll find inside the book. Keep popping back so you don’t miss them!

Second illustration reveal: Agnil and the Wizard’s Orb
Cranus lifted his arms like two branches above his head and a flock of small birds appeared from beneath his cloak.
With the cover more or less finished and the book ready for conversion to ebook, we are now very close to release. For today’s illustration reveal I have chosen one of my favourite characters, and I hope he’s one of yours too! I won’t be releasing any more illustrations now until the cover reveal. Enjoy!

First illustration reveal: Agnil and the Wizard’s Orb
Estil placed a bowl of water on the table and Agnil dipped the dagger into it, wiping away the mud with a cloth. The particles of mud swirled through the water until Agnil could no longer see the bottom of the bowl and the dagger was clean. As she lifted it out, she thought for a moment that she saw Vedron’s frozen face floating on the water. A shiver ran down her spine.
Exciting news! With all the illustrations for Agnil and the Wizard’s Orb complete, it won’t be long before the book will be released. Over the next few days I will reveal one or two more to give you a taste of what’s to come in book 2 of the Agnil’s Worlds series. As with the first book, the illustrations have been hand-drawn by Charlotte Moore.

Library Opening and Book Signing
On Monday 10th February I’ve been invited to open the newly relocated library at Wheatfields Primary School. I have a stack of books which I’ll take along and will sign any that are bought. I’m very excited as I’ve never done anything like this before! I wonder if I’ll have to cut a ribbon? A press release has been sent out along with this photo of the rather colourful library!

Book 2 coming!
I’ve been busy beavering away at the keyboard and have written Book 2 of the Agnil’s Worlds series. Called Agnil and the Wizard’s Orb, the manuscript is now with the publisher and Charlotte Moore is once again preparing the illustrations. I will be adding small hints about characters and settings to the web site very soon. It’s a slightly darker tale this time and Agnil will need her thermals on for this world!
I already have the outline for Book 3. Within the next few days, I will be starting on the first chapters so that there can be a preview of it in the back of Book 2. Watch out for further news in the next few weeks!
