And Congratulations go to Bethany Westoby from Hamstel Junior School who won the NPM Great Escape competition with her story entry 'Canine Confessions' and received a signed copy of the book and an author visit to her school.
And congratulations to Samuel Hart who won The Scribbler magazine competition with his story about Huxley to win a copy of the book and an mp3 player.
And congratulations to everyone who won books in the Bedford Link competition and the Your Cat giveaway.
And finally congratulations to Little M, Danilo Paganelli and Shahini Vijay who won books in the girlsheartbooks contest - and look out for the Cat Magic one coming in August.
And now...
There's only 10 days left... to enter Young Times and Puffin's 'My Pet, My Hero' competition before it closes on the 31st July and judging by the enthusiastic response every time I mention it on a school visit there's going to be an awful lot of entries!
The prize is to name a character in my next book. I've found that what most of the children would really like is to have their pet's name in the book - or even their pet.
This week I visited Hamstel Junior School in Southend where Bethany had won a nationwide story-writing competition with a great story told from a collie puppy's POV.
I asked the 120 or so Year 6 children at Hamstel if any of them had a pet they thought was brave enough to star in my next book set during the Blitz in WW2. Most of the children thought they had. One thought his cat would jump on a burglars head,

Things I discovered today: Rob 'Magic' Turner is a comic (I've missed humour) / Ben has a goldfish. It doesn't have a name / Went to bed thinking, 'Yay, I'm on track, I'm a little over the word count. I can do this,' and woke up to the realisation I needed to hit a brand new 1667 words #egofail
The most important thing discovered today: This is FUN.

But before that...
I love competitions and find it pretty hard to resist entering a writing one, even if I hardly ever win. I think they're a great way to practice writing and beat the dreaded writers block and you never know when that story might come in useful.
I'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who entered some of the recent ones there's been for 'The Great Escape.'
And congratulations to Samuel Hart who won The Scribbler magazine competition with his story about Huxley to win a copy of the book and an mp3 player.

The prompt for Illustration Friday this week is swell, which according to the dictionary, means to grow in size, or a rise in ocean waves, or stylish, fashionably dressed, or first-rate. It reminded me of this image from my new portfolio, and a story that could go with it:
The sea swell carried the bowl off the windowsill and out into the ocean, where the goldfish met face to face with a whale. “That’s just swell,” thought the goldfish. The whale thought, “Hooray! A new friend.”

1. I'm donating the last of our baby stuff. Sniff. And I'm okay with that. Even though the Little Guy has been begging me for a baby brother. He wants one just like his friend's baby brother Mikey. I said, "What if we have a baby girl?" He replied, "No, not a girl. Keep having babies until you get a boy." Methinks he'll get a goldfish instead.
2. The NESCBWI conference is this weekend and I'm wicked psyched (trying out speaking like the MA natives). The workshops sound fantastic, and I'm so looking forward to meeting up with some of my online writer friends in real life. Hope to see you there!

Yes, I did more drawings of goldfish! I’ll admit it and I am unashamed to say that I really like drawing them. They are a blast to draw… especially when you bulge out their eyes and make them look lonely and sad with a healthy dose of food allergies.

Made fresh for IF.I got the idea of the little girl holding up a sign to talk to her fish from a story my uncle in-law told me about his niece. She was trying to talk to his bird by drawing it pictures.
