Small cover image. The book cover is in matt pale blues, aqua/turquoise, with a near diamond pointed middle section that extends to points north and south and with flat sides east to west. Within and central is the books title, above is Maisie and her father in the antarctic and below is an ornate compass in red and orange. in the outer quadrants/corners, from top left clockwise appears a skidoo, a plummeting, orangey coloured plane with smoking engine, a brown seal looking left, and three penguins looking right. The authors name appears in gold within a pale creamy box between along the bottom. All of the above appear in a small scalloped white and gold band set in from the book edge.

DEBUT JOURNEYS Jack Jackman Words and Pictures is the online magazine of SCBWI British Isles.

I caught up with @jackjackman.bsky.social about his debut #MaisieVsAntarctica, a fantastic adventure #MG with a touch of the supernatural! This is his 6th book written, 1st published, and his advice to new authors is spot on: keep writing/learning/reading!

Half an hour after the engineer got to my house, BT sent me a text to tell me the engineer is in my house and did I want to tell him how to get here? 😂
