iraVEAL A NEW GARGOYLE


Happy Easter, kids!

As a little Easter treat I'm posting a picture of Ira, a new Gargoyle from book 3, Gargoylz and the Midnight Feast. At least I think he makes his first appearance in book 3- me brain's so befuddled, your guess is as good as mine.

Like all the little stone Gargoylz he has a special power, but you'll have to read the book to find out what it is.

THE BOLOGNA BOOK FAIR, 2009



Hello friends, we haven't spoken in a while and I'm so tired I can't even afford the time to think up a rubbish title for this post.

Duncan, my agent, has been on his travels and sent me these pics which are promoting the Gargoylz from this year's Bologna Book Fair. I didn't do the covers which might explain why they're so striking. But what I have been doing is the insides and that's a lot of work too for a fella of limited drawing ability.

Each book has around 100 b/w illustrations which each need scanning and emailing and the scanning and emailing alone takes hours for someone of limited technical ability. I've been up all night scanning and sending 32 corrections for book 3 of the Gargoylz and I'm not sure I have the time to steal just a few hours Egyptian PT as there's plenty more work that needs my attention.

I just didn't want you thinking I'd died or anything but many thanks to all those who thought I had and sent flowers.
