Pid-padding on...
It can be hard at times to realise just how quickly the sun-turns pass, turn themselves into weeks, then moon-turns. We're somehow already half way through the year, and as the sun-turns shorten, thoughts begin to turn to Autumn, and all the crumlush saztaculousness it brings...and the amount of work still left for Jacqui and I to do before we finish the book...
However, first things first, and we were most peffa-grateful for the saztaculous clackety-janglers that are Shrewsbury Morris for their help with our Kickstarter prize draw to win two black-and-white original pen and ink drawings of Matlock and Ursula, held in Shrewsbury's town square during their shindinculous 'Drums, Dance and Dynamix' day on Saturday 19th July - despite the ever present threat of a cracksploding lid and rain!

As tension mounted, two names were effortlessly picked from the box, revealing the two winners to be Susan Hughes and John Grisswell - so congratulations to them both, the pictures will be on their way - and once again grillions of thanks to Shrewsbury Morris, for whom Matlock is peffa-proud to be associated with as one of their sponsors...

Much of the last couple of weeks has been spent making rewards for our backers, together with writing and illustrating the book - alongside plans for a selection of Christmas goodies and curiosities, perfect for the most peffa-crumlushed 'Borascus'...of which there will be more in the next saztoblog...
...anyway, here's a sneak peak to get you in the mood....
For now, though, 'tis time for us to be pid-padding on, back to Matlock's adventures in the many majickal-dales, and see just how well he's doing in trying to solve 'The Puzzle of the Tillian Wand' - which despite what he seems to think, might just turn out to be an oidy bit more tricky and twizzly than he expects...
Goodbye for now - and may all your pid-pads be peffa-crumlushed ones...
