Narnia plundered!
Go to Tishma!Regular visitors to the BVC website will know that, for the past several weeks, we've been guilty of a little self indulgence. Yes, every alternate Monday we've been posting a little more of Prince Sashtan, a fantasy (*cough!*) "novel" I wrote at the tender age of eight or nine!

Set in the magical land of Tishma, it follows the adventures of a couple of child heroes as they enlist the help of talking animals and mythical creatures in an attempt to overthrow an evil king and restore the rightful heir to the throne. Okay, so it "borrows" (dare I say "copies"?!) extensively from C.S. Lewis's tales of Narnia but, hey - considering I was still in primary school, it's nothing if not ambitious and - in its own childish way - it is kind of fun!

This week we're posting the last two chapters of the book (Chapter 9 and Chapter 10) so, if you haven't visited Tishma yet, now's your chance to read the whole story from the beginning. Alternatively, if you have been following our heroes' adventures, jump straight to Chapter 9 now ... the party's just about to start!

Thanks, Alana! I must admit it did make me smile when I read it, but that was probably just nostalgia!

Now I'm trying to decide whether I should go the whole hog and post my second novel online - an Enid Blyton style adventure/mystery, written at the age of ten. Well, that's only half true ... I was eleven by the time I finished it - almost all growed up!
