Partially completed coloring book page of an erupting Mount Aetna, green slopes below with a small city perched precariously near a river of lava. Typhon has smoke curling around his body and he stares menacingly at the city.

Progress pic of my current #coloring project: Typhon at Mount Aetna in Mythic World by Kerby Rosanes, using Polychromos Pencils. I should be finished in another 2 weekends or so.

Looking incredible!

Congratulations! Huge achievement! And all the best for the next steps

Why authors want you to pre-order their book If a book receives 1,000 pre-orders the author is entitled to borrow Richard Osman's special pen. If a book gets 10,000 pre-orders the author will be bitten by a radioactive bookworm, giving them an authorial superpower. If a book gets 100,000 pre-orders - thus hitting the #1 spot in the charts - the author is invited onto a special edition of Top of the Pops to sing the first chapter live with lycra-clad dancers.
