I shared this poem on facebook with my friends recently but thought I should share it here too because it's exciting!!!! It's a BOOK DEAL! 
​
A Bird in the Hand
Today I signed a book deal
Woo hoo, yaroo, yippee,
Today I signed a book deal
But not for one - for three!
'We love your characters, your 'Voice', 
They said, enthusiastic.
'The comedy, You Are Your Hat! 
Your witchy world's fantastic!'
They wooed me with their cupcakes,
In the guise of Toadspit hats
They wowed me with their fondness
For the cauldrons and the cats.
Today I signed a book deal
Woo hoo, yaroo, yippee,
Today I signed a book deal
But not for one - for three!
Which publisher, I hear you ask
Has signed the deal of glee?
Who wants a witchy world of fun
Who made me shout whoopee?
A company of awesomeness,
A bird I'm sure you know,
I've hooked my witchy charm bracelet
To the leg of Nosy Crow!

You see! I was right! It's very exciting! 

​More info coming soon. ​

I'd love a name like Bloodaxe Bert,
Or Putrid Pete, or Gruesome Gert.
Fearsome Fred would be fantastic.
Dreadful Dev would sound quite drastic.

​I'd love a name like Bloodaxe Bert,
Or Putrid Pete, or Gruesome Gert.
Fearsome Fred would be fantastic.
Dreadful Dev would sound quite drastic.
Obnoxious Otto would be great,
I'd love to be a Nasty Nate.
But, that can't be, cos ever since
I ate a stew of squid and quince,
And threw up over Captain Kid
He went and named me Seasick Sid.
