Calling all talented illustrators

I'm working on a children's picture book project at the moment. It's a series of five simple texts for children aged about 4 - 7 years of age. To make this project fly, I need to find some illustrators who are interested in working with me. If that's you, I'd love to send you some information. Let me know who you are...

Talk to me!

Here's your chance to talk to a real children's author. I am happy to answer questions from children and adults about the writing process. I will help whenever I can. I've had manuscripts accepted and rejected. I've been nominated for awards and not been nominated. I've had a range of children's literature published, from plays and poems to picture books and junior fiction. My book on how to write jokes was an award finalist. Love to hear from you.
