The original doodle is four posts down from here.
Keep it Real.
by Jonathan Marsh. Published in Stop Talking, Start Doing by Shaa Wasmund and Richard Newton, Capstone Publishing Ltd 2011. This book, which contains 7 of my doodles has done brilliantly in the business book chart at WHSmith travel stores so you can get yourself a copy at most railway stations, airports, service stations, etc or you can buy it online from Amazon. This particular doodle was sketched on the back of an envelope while Rich was still writing the book and then submitted by him at the last minute to illustrate a section called ‘The problem with fantasy goals’. Underneath the picture in the book it says, ‘Keep it Real’. When I saw it in the book, I didn’t recognise it and asked Rich who did it! It’s now my favourite of the doodles that made it into the book but it’s funny something dashed off quickly can end up looking better than something pored over for ages. Or should that be ‘pawed over’…? (*groan*)
My 100th DoodleBlog post.
This is my one hundredth post since I started this DoodleBlog in September 2011. The puffy cloud fixation continues unabated.

Deja de hablar y comienza a actuar.
Yesterday, I was delighted receive this copy of Deja de hablar y comienza a actuar: Una descarga eléctrica en seis etapas from friend and author Richard Newton. It’s the Spanish edition of his best-selling book Stop Talking, Start Doing: A Kick in the Pants in Six Parts and contains some faithfully-translated doodles of mine.
The Gunpowder Plot
400 years after the gunpowder plot of 1605, a reconstruction suggested that everyone within 100 metres would have been killed by the blast including King James and the House of Lords.

Guy Fawkes Night.
We English have been burning an effigy of Guy Fawkes every 5th November since 1605. Could it be Guido’s Spanish-sounding assumed name that’s marked him out as our scapegoat for over 400 years rather than any of his 12 co-conspirators, I wonder? I guess “Bob Catesby Night” doesn’t quite have the same ring about it.

Pumpkin Abduction.
Spare a thought for all that pumpkin carnage we created yesterday. Vegetables have feelings too, you know?

House-Hunting (part 8).
Sometimes I wonder just how far estate agents might stretch the truth when describing property…

House-Hunting (part 7).
Don’t you just love the way estate agents describe property?

House-Hunting (part 6).
Proximity to transport links are much-hyped by estate agents but can be the stuff of nightmares…
