Sem's feelings

I've been busy writing away and am powering through the first draft. The actions really heated up in book two so I've not been drawing as much. But, as a treat, here's a very very short excerpt from Chapter 22 - Rupture:

--

Sem walked over to Gemmy and sat down beside him. He put his arm around her. He knew she would never cry, not in front of anyone else. Her stony face was there to hold her emotions in. Sadly, though, he could feel the electrical impulses of her mind and the energy of her heart racing and breaking.

Don't worry - our girl gets her own in the end. Here's a picture of her looking happier

Enjoy!

Write a novel month- Anasia

In November I'm planning on participating in National Write a Novel Month (I can't grow a moustache. Sorry Movember).

I'm going to start a new series that's been rattling around in my brain ever since my mate Mark Gray gave me the idea. I won't give too much away but the story will centre around Anasia (or Ana for short):

I wanted to create a heroine who my nieces could be for Halloween without having to be the 'black version' of a character. Ana is a smart, determined, beautiful girl. She was named Anansia for the eight-pronged star birthmark on her face that looks like the symbol of Anasi. She was born outside the town of Sindou in Burkina Faso.

There's loads more to learn about Anasia and her adventures. Watch this space.

Enjoy!
