I don’t know if I was a strange child or not but anything I owned as a child was very dear to me. Anything lost was a severe dent. I seriously used to sit at the end of my bed and pray for the souls of inanimate objects that had left my custody.
I do wonder how deeply kids are effected with our new disposable society and how it will change them as adults.
Yes, Calvin and Hobbes is also my favourite cartoon of all time.

I love Shrek! I would have saved him!

I love your blog, and am wishing that my books would make the shelves at walmart/tesco whichever –

Currently read the Voyage of the Dawntreader -CS Lewis – great read yet again!

How long/drawn out is the process of publishing a children’s book? How does one go about getting their book out there?

Bill Watterson had a syndicated comic strip. This pays loads more than a children’s book author. The more money one has the easier it is to hang onto ones integrity.

Word. Calvin and Hobbes all the way. I’m curious… what do you think it will take to get the point across in the media- what you mentioned with Shrek… what do you think is the best way for a message piece to retain it’s message in the face of publicity, celebrities, etc?

Hi,

To have my forthcoming publication on the “Tesco” shelves adjacent to the checkouts (and at eye-level) would be MY greatest ambition. The M&Ms, winegums and chewits will be relegated to the back of the shop.

Little steps turn into the greatest leaps and black forest gateau.

Regards,
Coral

The “lost” shrek may have been a spy on a Speshol Mishon. My parents thort I was lost once, but really I just had an important job to do.
