The Tulip Pot

Before being glazed

The finished piece

The wait begins...

After sending off my novel, Time Shifters to a few agents in January, I decided I wanted to do something creative whilst I waited for the replies, so on the 18th January I started a pottery course at Potstop in Bristol. Two hours spent making a pot out of clay flew by and was not only enjoyable but relaxing too. As it turned out I didn't have to wait long for a reply from an agent because that same week, four days after posting the first three chapters off, the children's book specialist at one of the literary agencies phoned me asking to read the whole novel. That was two weeks ago. So to take my mind off the wait, I'm off to Potstop again this afternoon and will hopefully have a finished piece of pottery to show for my first few weeks work.
