Mr. C. Turtle Makes New Friends
Hello Friends,
I have been working on sketches in watercolor to go with a story I wrote a long time ago. They’re kinda goofy, but hey, it’s a silly story. I haven’t finished the sketches to go with all the words yet, but this is what I have so far. And yes, that is a monocle Mr. C. Turtle is wearing! 🙂
To be continued……
******Just out of curiosity, which character is your favorite?*******
Have a wonderful day, and give someone you love a big hug! 🙂

In your story you have Solomon written in the text. Maybe you’ve changed it since you wrote it?

Wow! I do! Sorry about that Anneli. Ha, ha. I guess I don’t remember changing that because it has been so long since I worked on the story. Well, maybe I will just leave it as “Solomon.” Thanks for that!

That happens to me sometimes in my various drafts of my novels. Sometimes I’ve given the character brown eyes at the beginning of the book and then I give him blue eyes. Or I change the name and then forget to change it in one place. That’s all it takes for a disaster if it isn’t caught by a copy-editor. 😉

Thanks so much Jill. Yes Mr. C. Turtle is a bit confused, but he is a good guy. Josh came over last night to visit which was a nice surprise. I wasn’t sure if he was coming or not. It is great to hear all of his and Grace’s stories about their work and the others that are on their crews. Grace has already been assigned some specific duties and gets onto others who aren’t working hard enough. I think she AND Josh will be crew leaders eventually! This has been so good for them!

I’m sure Solomon will appeal to a lot of kids, especially with his cap on backwards like they all have now.
