This video explains how I have used models to really get to know the characters in my books, in this case my Dark Claw series, a sort of Star Wars with cats and mice – or rather – Kats and Muss!

You can watch the animated version of the story on my Storytime Channel. This is the playlist for the whole series: http://bit.ly/DarkClawStory
