B = Ballyhoo

Plot:

This is a story of a king that has to have all the attention, but due to his size, no one takes any notice of him. Frustrated and angry by this he declares a law that everything in the land must have his face on it.

Soon everyone is outraged, queuing up to complain to the king. The king though is ecstatic with his somewhat negative fame.

But.......as time passes people get used to the kings face, it becomes part of daily life. Which then results in the king becoming invisible and angry once again.

A = Abyss

Plot:

About a boy called Finn who is always daydreaming at school, much to the annoyance of his teacher.

Then one day during a lesson Finn gets stuck in his daydream...

He needs to find a way out! And with words from the lesson making weird things happen, it won't be the easiest of challenges!

NEW PROJECT...
Well apart from the small announcement in the post below.....it has been over a year since I’ve updated this blog, terrible I know!

To amend this I have created a new project: ‘ 2nd page, 11th word ’.

Project outline:
Every few weeks (or less) i will...

1. Take the 90s Oxford ‘Colour’ (may I add) Dictionary.

2. Make my way through the alphabet applying a rule of: 2nd page, 11th word*.

3. Use this word to create a plot for a (children’s) story.

4. Do an illustration(s) to accompany this plot.

5. Result have 26 story ideas.

* if there isn’t a 2nd page or 11th word, use the principle of the 11th word and count in a loop until it falls on a word (eeny miny mo strategy).
