GROWN-UPS DON'T ALWAYS GET IT RIGHT
Made in Cornwall
This book is the first of the Morgowr adventures; it is the first I have written, illustrated and published - it is also printed in Cornwall. You may be surprised to know that many Cornish children’s books are published outside of the county AND PRINTED as far away as ITALY and CHINA ....Not in Cornwall!
So, did I remember to register this book with Cornwall Councils’ 'Made In Cornwall’ scheme and put their logo on the back cover of this book? NO, I didn’t ....Silly me! However, I am now a bonafide member of the scheme.
Forests for all, forever
This book is printed on paper made from trees in sustainable forests. Did I remember to add the FSC logo to the back of my book? You’ve guessed it ....No I didn’t! Silly, silly me!
Pagination error
EVEN SILLIER than that, just before the book went to press, the page numbers were changed; they had started at page 1 at the beginning, so that the story began on page 8 – now that page became page 1. Guess what? I didn’t realise this and so at the end of the book (p106) the verse reads:
How many of you noticed
that the planet on page 10
was drawn as it is today
and not as it was then?
But it’s no longer page 1, it's page 4 now ....And I didn’t notice the mistake until it was printed ....Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Silly, silly, silly me!!! Next time the book is printed, the new verse will read:
How many of you noticed
that our planet on page 4
is how it looks in space today
- the world opposite, no more!
Best wishes to you all,
