I enjoyed writing from a young age. But I am quite sure I had nothing like the talent possessed by my six-year-old Jordi. Words flow from him like champagne. For a couple of years now I've been writing down his stories and sayings, and a short while ago helped him complete his first poem, about our kitten. My role was merely to help him think about the order his lines should take: the words all came from him. I wonder if there's another 6-year-old in the world could have written anything like this? If you like it, please comment and check out his website at www.jordiblake.co.uk.

I'm happy to say that, as I now own the rights to The Last Free Cat, I've re-published the ebook and it's available now at https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07SQ2RWRZ for just £2.99. It will have a more professional cover soon and a paperback will follow asap (not one of those crappy Amazon ones). All help publicising this will be much appreciated, as I do not have the marketing budget of a major publisher!
