Title Reveal & Shipwreck Competition Results

Posted on July 10, 2019, tagged as A Pinch of Magic, competitions

I’m delighted to reveal the title of my 8th book: A Sprinkle of Sorcery, which is a sequel to A Pinch of Magic. The Widdershins will be back in the Spring!

Here’s a taster:

The family curse has been lifted and the Widdershins sisters: Betty, Fliss and Charlie are free to leave the prison island of Crowstone. But when a mysterious girl arrives at the Poacher’s Pocket with a pocketful of hagstones and accompanied by a will-o’-the-wisp, it seems another adventure has landed on their doorstep. And when Charlie goes missing, it’s up to Betty and Fliss to journey through misty marshes, past wisp catchers and on to a secret island that doesn’t exist on any map…

And now for the SHIPWRECK COMPETITION RESULTS

I had so much fun reading through your entries to name the shipwreck that appears in A Sprinkle of Sorcery – thank you SO much to everyone who took part.

The winning entry is THE SORCERER’S COMPASS by Tanya Lace, age 12.

As soon as this came in I just knew it was the one. And now you’ve seen the title for book two it’s clear why it’s such a perfect fit. Congratulations, Tanya! You’ll receive a signed copy of the book and a mention in the acknowledgements.

The entries were so good that I’ve decided to choose some well deserved runners-up, who’ll each receive a signed copy of the book when it’s published:

HOLLOW BONES by Annie Robins, age 14
THE SLEEPING SOULS by Zora Hosen, age 9
THE BRINY WITCH by Andrew Bird, age 41

There are also some honourable mentions for the following people who’ll receive a little something in the post:
