Author and Illustrator of the fantastic 'The Bear Who Stared' on Templar Books, Duncan Beedie talks us through the story of how a bear character illustration staring back at him in a moment of reflection would go on to become his debut book deal.
Pulling back the curtain, Duncan details everything from the crucial importance of nuances to tell and effective story, to how he landed a three-book deal with Templar.
This is not one to miss for anyone who has an interest in entering the world of children's book publishing.
The Bear Who Stared is available online at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bear-Who-Stared-Duncan-Beedie/dp/178370375X and at most Waterstones book stores, plus independent outlets
