I wrote Mitsu in 2006 during my final year at Uni with the assistance of my tutor Delia Falconer (<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Lost-Thoughts-Soldiers-Delia-Falconer/dp/1582435286?ie=UTF8&tag=mitsutheda-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">The Lost Thoughts of Soldiers</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=mitsutheda-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=1582435286" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important;" width="1" />) and the generosity of my sister Nikki who dedicated many hours of her time to create 30 illustrations for my story.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Mitsu is essentially about a young girl's quest to save her mother, touching on themes which hark back to classic tales such as <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Alices-Adventures-Wonderland-Through-Looking/dp/0141192461?ie=UTF8&tag=mitsutheda-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">Alice In Wonderland</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=mitsutheda-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=0141192461" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important;" width="1" />, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Labyrinth-David-Bowie/dp/B00000K3D4?ie=UTF8&tag=mitsutheda-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">The Labyrinth</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=mitsutheda-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=B00000K3D4" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important;" width="1" />, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wonderful-Wizard-Oz-Anniversary-Wonder/dp/0060293233?ie=UTF8&tag=mitsutheda-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">The Wizard of Oz</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=mitsutheda-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=0060293233" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important;" width="1" />, as well as the more recent <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Coraline-Mass-Market-Paperback-Gaiman/dp/B001S33D1G?ie=UTF8&tag=mitsutheda-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">Coraline</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=mitsutheda-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=B001S33D1G" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important;" width="1" />. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">From the beginning <i>Mitsu</i> has been a very visual story. Initially I wanted to write it as a screenplay, but for my Independent Writing Project I decided to create a basic Flash website to present the text and images. After graduating, my sister suggested we print a physical copy in a storybook format, and thus began our four year journey of revising and improving <i>Mitsu</i> for publication. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Nikki and I are very excited to announce that <i>Mitsu</i> is only weeks away from being launched, and will be available to readers around the world very soon. We can't wait!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
