Ten years ago, when I was living in New England, I was working for a company and was down at a weekend seminar. It became extremely boring, and I began to drift. I started doodling on a piece of paper. I simply drew a circle with three lines coming down to a basket and drew a boy and a girl inside. The working title was The Boy & the Balloon. From that moment, I connected with the idea of a boy, Tom, and a girl, Sarah, who were both orphans at a terrible orphanage up in northern England. They wanted to escape, but the only way to outmaneuver an illustrious detective and his police force, was to commandeer a hot air balloon. I thought what fun, traveling throughout England, free for the first time in years, and seeing everything there was to see. This is how it all started, ten years ago. It took me 4 years and 2500 hours to finish Britfield & the Lost Crown.
