I can’t believe it’s time to post
another blog. What have I done in the last two weeks? A bit of writing
(hoorah!) and re-cycling old bricks!
I’ve managed to finish another
draft chapter in my third book about the magic game ‘The Tenth Gateway’. I’ve
been a bit slow as it’s taken me several weeks to work out how the fictional
children can solve a difficult challenge. It’s interesting that the more I
write about the main characters in the story the more real they become for me
and I know how they will each react to a particular situation.
I’ve also completed a page for ‘The Spy’s Door’ as part of
the scbwi (society of children’s book
writers and illustrators) annual bookstop promotion. So if you are looking
for holiday gifts for children you can find 'The Spy's Door' and lots more to
browse through at #SCBWIBookStop for
a great new read
Although I haven’t done a huge
amount of weeding and planting type of gardening I have been very active
outside re-using the old bricks from the house renovation we did several years
ago. My first effort was to make a new garden path.
I have some more ideas that I’ll show you next post.
Do you have any fun or practical ideas of how to recycle
materials or items left over from a building project?
