Hi Everyone.....

Fabulous News!
I have had the first piece of artwork sent in!

If you recall, I asked for art of all types to be sent for consideration on being used in the illustrated version of George's Odd Socks.

It is such a great feeling to receive the first artwork. It was kindly sent in from a school teacher who is asking her class to read some of the chapters of the book and then to create some art of their own. I look forward very much to seeing their work.

The picture below shows Krismouse scampering along with Archie the Robin flying high above. I really like this piece, the details really are very good and it captures the atmosphere of the chapter very well.

I look forward very much to receiving all art and photos of your craft ideas.

And so, read the book, create the look!

Send in anything you like, please!

Updated News!!!

Two more wonderful pictures have arrived from two amazing artists!

I love these pictures....
Both are fabulous, both showing different scenes from the book.
This is exactly the sort of incredible art I am looking forward to viewing.

A huge, huge, huge special double thank you from me to Marina V and Sasha B  :)

Finn's Blog - First Post

Finn's Blog

First Ever Post.....

Welcome to my first blog post!

This may take a while until I get the hang of this blogging lark but hopefully it won't be too long before it's up there with the best of them..... well, at least perhaps not down there with the worst of them!

This blog is to update readers with the progress of my children's novel 'George's Odd Socks.'

Please note that anything you submit must be your own work. I will of course contact you if your work is chosen to be included within the illustrated version of the book. I look forward to viewing your art with great interest and with sincere, grateful appreciation.

George's Odd Socks is available free if you have Amazon Kindle Unlimited or it can be purchased quite cheaply at:

Goodreads and at Amazon Kindle

There is a paperback version at: Lulu Publishing

I am also very interested in anyone wishing to translate George's Odd Socks into other languages.

If anyone has any interesting ideas or comments please contact me. I will do my best to reply as soon as possible.

Thank you for your interest!
