A quick note of greeting to all my readers, taking the time to have a look round the new site.
While it is sparsely populated at present, no doubt additional content and blog posts will be added in due course.
On its first day, johnlcbarnes.com received 250 hits and I would like to thank you all for your kind messages of encouragement, which are greatly appreciated.
At the time of writing, Clara's second adventure is at the proofing and editing stage.
Interestingly, I wrote the first draft in the six months after 'Clara's Clever Custard' was published in 2010, but various life events rather got in the way of its onward journey.
In response to your many queries about when that smart, passionate little English girl will be reprising her starring role in a new story; I can confirm that you will not have too much longer to wait.
Let me leave you with a little video, which shows the genesis of the first cover and how the various drawing layers were used to produce the final image.
Enjoy!
