Tintagel Magic

I had a lovely time recently when a childhood friend came to stay. Among the many things we did was a trip to King Arthur's birthplace - Tintagel. The castle is in ruins and you have to cross a causeway to get to the part of the castle in the picture. It was stunning to be there again (I cannot take my kids as I get too nervous having little ones up that high and exposed!!) so I can only go when they are at school. The castle is on a headland and is opposite a couple of wondeful sea caves, one of which is aptly named merlin's Cave. You cannot fail to be inspired when you reach the castle - although it took a while to be able to breathe after the climb!!! I am hoping to return to St Agnes to the ruined engine house on the cliff (the one in my title picture) as opening chapters of my book are set there. Before the end of this week I will be back writing again.
I think the book cover for Mortlock is awesome Jon - as is the trailer! Well done Tam on Harriet's success! It is exciting to see people you have got to know via blogs having their first novels published soon.
I have been brave and revamped my holiday club proposal over the summer holidays. I recently submitted it again to another Christian publisher and await news ever hopefully!

What Kind of Book am I?

You Are Fantasy / Sci Fi
You have an amazing imagination, and in your mind, all things are possible.
You are open minded, and you find the future exciting. You crave novelty and progress.

Compared to most people, you are quirky and even a bit eccentric. You have some wacky ideas.
And while you may be a bit off the wall, there's no denying how insightful and creative you are.
