Week 5 of the count up

 5

Five is an odd number and like all odd numbers, it has at least one ‘e’ in its name.

Week 4 of the count up

 

4

The number 4 has 4 letters in its name: f-o-u-r. Bet you can’t find any other number that does that.

Week 3 - a sneak preview of Megan and Amy's favourite game

Megan and Amy find themselves entangled in trying to keep a secret that they're not even sure they know, but in between times they like to relax and play board games - sometimes they allow mums and dads to play, sometimes they don't. 

Their current favourite is The Gorgon's Loch.

This is a real game. It's due to be out shortly before Horse of the Same Colour, and you can get yourself first in the queue for a copy by heading over to the project page and signing up. It costs just the same whether you buy now or later BUT Megan advises you to buy now because there are some really cool add-ons that won't be available later.

Go and take a look on THIS LINK and leave a comment to say what you think.

Here's a cool fact about the number 3: Somewhere between 3 and 4 is the mathematical constant, Pi. It can be defined as the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, and is approximately equal to 3.142 but you can keep those decimal points going forever.

Week 2 of the count up

2

‘eleven plus two’ is an anagram of another sum that also equals 13. Can you work out that sum? The answer will be in a few posts from now.

A unique number

A happy, safe and prosperous 2021 to everyone

Having introduced all the new characters and hinted at the BIG SECRET, I had hoped to start a Countdown to Publication. But I can’t because I don’t have a publication date yet.

However, the book will be published in 2021 so instead of a countDOWN, I’m doing a countUP. When I get a date, I will reverse direction and count down.

This is week 1.

1 is an interesting number. It’s neither a prime number nor a composite number. Every other whole number is one or the other.
