Exciting weekend!

So proud of Kit. He competed at RoboDojo in York yesterday, and Exposure came 2nd in the tournament! The video is of Exposure beating Bulbaroar.  Today, I joined other authors at Forgan's Broughty Ferry for a book signing event.

New, improved Exposure

Kit's been working hard improving his combat robot. His latest design is amazing. Kit will be competing at RoboDojo in York on Saturday 2nd November. Find out more about his project at https://kitscombatrobots.blogspot.com/ All proceeds from sales of Captain Kit go towards the combat robot.

November events

I'll be busy in November at various events, including Auchterarder Book Festival and Angus Book Fest. Delighted to have my first school visit booked as part of Book Week Scotland celebrations.

Making the Yum Yum

My son  Kit and I spent time this morning transforming a toy pirate ship into the Yum Yum. We've included some scenes from the book. I think it looks great and hopefully it will attract customers to our stall at forthcoming events.
