What is a template?
Templates are reusable content blocks you can insert into any post. Use them for content you repeat often, like:
Standard disclaimers or disclosures
Calls to action (subscribe, share, etc.)
Custom dividers or recurring sections
Post templates or boilerplate
To create a template, click "Template" in the editor toolbar and select one to insert. You can organize templates into groups by using "/" in the name (e.g. "Email/Welcome").
Hi to everyone who would like to spend a little more time in the Septimus Heap world—this is for you. I’ve been doing this pretty much every Friday for a few months and, a little like writing a book, it is developing a mind of its own and turning into a really good place to be. Welcome to lots of writing chat and thoughts - this is for anyone, whether you have read Sep Heap or not, who wants to delve into the weird world of writing … worlds.
Huge thanks to Mark Zug for his creation of so many iconic Septimus images and for giving me permission to use them here. Also for allowing me to colour some of his pencil images—which I have so loved doing. This one below is, of course, completely Mark Zug. From the cover of The Magykal Papers.
Here below is my fave set of books, which I’ll be dipping into—the original USA edition without their covers. All much loved, battered and some of them have travelled around the USA with me on whirlwind-wonderful author tours. The covers by Mark Zug are breathtaking, iconic, but I also love the plain coloured boards that lurk beneath with their contrasting spines and the impressed symbol on them. Thank you, Katherine Tegen and HarperCollins US, for taking so much care with these books and making them so beautiful. What a Magykal time we all had creating them …
I’ve read this series 3 times now, once in middle school, just before college and have just finished it for a third time💛 curiosity brought me to the internet which brought me here, and I was so excited to see how recent this Substack was!! The young girl in me is thrilled, the adult me is so excited!!
In Sandrider, it says Spit Fyre saw Septimus get hit by a dark dart as he’s chasing Oraton-Marr. How did Spit Fyre see that? I didn’t remember him being there in Pathfinder. Thanks!
