the winners of the βSpot my Mistake in the Castleβ competition. π
Take note it's winners in the plural! You helpfully pointed out numerous errors. And, as the entries poured in, I questioned my ability to even spell my own name right.
Here's the map again.
Blunder no.1 (The main one)
Inconsistencies misspelt. This has been corrected in the map in the book.
The winner of the $30 Amazon Gift card is: Pat β from somewhere in the US. π
Blunder no.2 (The missing gap)
Thechilly North Sea. That's just my bad handwriting. This has been retained in the final version to prove I'm human and not a machine. (I know, what a shockingly bad excuse! π₯΅ In reality, I've smudged the drawing so much, I can't change anything else).
The winner of this extra draw for a $10 gift card is: Rosaleen β from Dublin.π
Blunder no.3 (The denial)
Tootles for now. Yes, it should be Toodles. It's said by one of the characters. But I wrote it wrong on the map, and changing it to Tootles in the book was easier. (I thought I'd got away with that one).
The winner of this other extra draw for a $10 gift card is: Michele from Indiana.π
Thanks to everyone who entered. I had a fantastic response, which warmed my cockles but, at the same time, made my toes curl in embarrassment. π
And I'm so pleased to announce, The Murder Away From Merangs is finally out there.
First, she lost her lipstick, and now sheβs stuck with a killer.
Helen's thrilled when she's invited to a lavish country house party in a magnificent castle. She pictures cliff-top walks, cream teas by the fire, goblets of wine, and sparkling conversation.
Instead, she's required to attend medieval-themed workshops, wear a rustic smock, and contemplate the uses of seaweed and donkey dung.
The prickly guests fall out in lumps when their valuables go missing. And, as if a thief amongst them isn't bad enough, a storm blocks the only road to the castle and cuts off all communications.
When a member of the party disappears, Helen realises she may have witnessed a murder. In blurting out her suspicions, she becomes the next target. With a devious, avenging killer on the loose, will Helen and her rustic smock get out alive?
The book is at 0.99 to newsletter subscribers for a couple of days, and then I'll increase it to the full price of 3.99
Thanks to the advanced reader team. I'm so grateful for the reviews that have already come through, and I'm holding my breath for the rest.
Happy reading y'all xxx
It will always be 'Tootles' to me. It's so much better than Toodles! :)
Glad you thinks so. That's reassuring. π
