Cheers Candy!
I'm still quite amazed! It's the first time I've ever had anything read other than local crit groups. Makes it seem all worth while. I know I didn't win, but this is deffo the confidence boost I needed!

Candy, many thanks for the very friendly welcome. I do love the 'Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming' message at the top of your page, it supremely reflects the way I feel right now. Are you able to help me change the appearance of my 'home' page in the way you and others have done theirs? I'd like to post some of my Muddy Waters artwork but don't have the first clue how to do it!
Hi Candy it's Eric,I've recieved the Welcome pack from SCBWI,just reading through the info,is it worth contacting publishers in the USA and other countries,or do they use illustrators just from their own country.Had some good news,I've got into Oxford University press,Little tiger press and Gomer which is a big Welsh publisher,I've also sent my new examples to some of the big publishers so fingers crossed,hope you are well,speak to you soon...........Eric
