Pirates, reefs and ghostly occurrences

Admittedly it's been a while since my last blog, but at least I now have "shtuff" to report. After reading an article in the local press about a local publisher seeking local talent, I decided to chuck a couple of manuscripts his way. One of them was my prospective picture book, "The Great Reef Race", which I am proud to announce has been selected for publication nearer the end of 2012.

Besides giving "Reef Race" one final tune-up, I've also started work on a childrens adventure novel (my first, believe it or not), currently titled, "Captain Mandible and the Deadlings". As of now I'm a mere dozen pages in, but the ideas are stacking up in my favour.

Other news? Hmmm. I've finally graduated from the University of Stoopid Phone, and now own "Smart Phone".
Which hopefully will allow me greater freedom to write and capture ideas and moments of creativity whilst on the move.

At least, that's the plan once I drag my addiction-ridden carcass away from playing "Angry Birds"...
