This past week I have done some research about the history and fables of Cape Town. The stories will involve some of my newly created characters and their adventures around the city. I would like the stories to have some interresting link with the cape, I think this will make them appeal to tourists as well as locals. The three first drafts are the following: the legend of van Hunks and the Devil smoking on the mountain, the story of heroic Wolraad Woltemade and his horse who saved shipwrecked passengers near the mouth of the Salt River and the legend of the “Flying Dutchman”.
Now it is time to do a costing on the colouring-in books and other activities I want to put in my packages. Also – I am looking for a good storyteller who can interpret the basic stories that I have written an turn them int nicely flowing or rhyming prose. Please contact me if you have any ideas.
