I’m doing a talk as part of the excellent Mountains to Sea literary festival.  Myself, Deirdre McDermott (my lovely art director) and Kevin Waldron are going to chat about making picture books and show how we create a book and that sort of thing. Have a look at Kevin’s work here, its amazing. The whole festival looks amazing there are no fewer than 4 Booker prize winners doing talks at it, well worth popping down to.
