Long Gon Don named a Graphic novel of the year!

Well, there's being late to the party, and then there's us. Somehow we managed to miss the fact that Long Gone Don was named one of the eight Graphic Novels of the year in 2014 by The Book Trust! We may be five months behind in announcing this, but that doesn't make it any less awesome, especially as the Book Trust is such a vital and positive force in getting children and families reading and loving books. So, THANK YOU Book Trust!

Hay Festival 2015 show report!

What a fun time we had last week at the awesome Hay Festival! We rocked up on Monday night, and swiftly formed a Phoenix Posse (which consisted of, left to right: Joe Brady, Robin, Neill Cameron, Adam Murphy, Lizzie Payton, myself and Charlie Rashid (taking photo). We went out and had fun.
Then onto the big day! We played our public show to a monster audience on the Wales stage:

Once the dust had settled we headed to the signing tent where we found a rather long queue of readers awaiting our spidery scrawl in their newly purchased books!

Meanwhile, superstar Phoenix creators Adam Murphy and Neill Cameron were blowing minds with their own epic workshops...

Then it was time to head home, our hearts filled with joy, and our stomachs filled with complimentary festival cake. Massive thanks to The Phoenix and Hay Festival for having us, and to the Phoenix Posse for putting up with us (including Zak Simmonds-Hurn, who we didn't get a picture of, but who designed the awesome Hay Fever booklet, which you can see HERE).

We've lots more festivals to come this year, so stay tuned!
