Judges Commentary*:

Good morning everyone, I started writing book number nine this morning and worked on it for about two hours. I don't know about anyone else but the morning seems to be my least productive time. I sit at the computer typing and the ideas come slower and then when I start to nod off I know I'm done. So does this happen to anyone else lol?



Also I would love some more reviews on Amazon, Kobo or good reads the book is still…

Hi everyone, spent a couple hours writing today and managed to finish book number eight in the The Gurnafandry Chronicles. I have to think about books nine a bit. I have some interesting ideas where to take the main characters, however, I do want to add some twists to keep kids interested

Good morning everyone, my new editor has finishing doing a final edit on books 2 through 8. I have spent time going through books 2 - 5. I have made some substantial changes to book two which I think everyone will like. I had to add another 12 illustrations, which, Bob Hobbs will be starting, So hopefully book two will be ready within the next couple of months. I know you will enjoy it. 



Also just a reminder that my book can be read…

However, if anyone is interested in the 1st edition of book they are available in print format on Amazon and Chapters.com and in ebook format on iTunes and for everyone who has a kobo it is available @ kobo…

Hi everyone I hope you are all having a amazing weekend. I checked my kick starter project athttp://www.kickstarter.com/projects/moordragonarts/ashley-and-daniyyels-amazing-adventure

and noticed that there are only four backers for a tool of $360.00, this is a far cry from the goal that I set to get my book and its positive and inspirational message out to as many children as possible.

The message in the first book is " it doesn't matter how small you are or how pig the…
