Hi everybody. Well, I had some news from my Australian publisher today, which I think you’ll like. But first, a quick lesson in publishing! You all know what a paperback book is, I’m sure. Well, what you may not know is that there are three different sizes of paperback novel – A format, B format,… {read more}

Well, it’s been a while since we’ve seen one of these: an actual piece of actual news! To do with the actual books! I’ve now signed the contract for the American edition of the second trilogy, but for unknown reasons the release dates weren’t included. I made an enquiry, and can now inform you that… {read more}

Today is my 26th birthday! I’m hoping to get the new Nightwish album. Maybe that’ll inspire more books.

And finally, as promised, the remaining contest entries! Wanamore This is the other entry that came without art, so again, I drew some! Wanamore once fought in an Arena, so I added shackles to his legs. I would like to introduce you to Wanamore, a 26 year old Griffin that makes his home on the… {read more}
