• Here are three more videos to show you how to draw stuff from the Mudpuddle Farm Books by Michael Morpurgo. There’s Mossop the Cat and the Tractor that he sleeps on and Pint Size the pig too. Enjoy 🙂

  • Apple have just introduced their new iBook Author software. I downloaded it today and I’m already halfway through producing my first iBook! It’s very easy to use. one or two oddities, but soon got them sorted out. have a look at the video and see what you think:

  • Should I have Laser Eye Surgery? I went to have a consultation for laser eye surgery today. It was all going well until I realised that I would be left needing reading glasses to see what I see very well at the moment. That didn’t seem like a very good trade off.

    Then the Optometrist suggested I have one eye done and keep the best short sight eye as it is. That seemed absurd! But she put a contact lens in one eye and sent me off to see how I felt.

    It was amazing! My brain adapted instantly, even though the lens wasn’t that good and was clouded up with green stain. I went to the Apple Store to see what it would be like with a computer and that was fine. Then I did a bit of sketching and that was fine too.

    They have proper lenses on order for me to try out for a week to see how I go and then, if all is well, I’ll have the surgery and won’t need glasses anymore – how amazing is that?

    She then put stuff in my eyes to dilate the pupils. When I came out I was really happy and the light was so bright and the everything was a bit twinkly, I think I got a little bit trippy on adrenaline, or something.

    Anyway, I’ve calmed down a bit now. get subscribed for the next episode 🙂
