The final book in me old mucker, Tommy Donbavand’s SCREAM STREET series has recently been published, and to mark the occasion Tommy has written an exclusive thirteen part story which is running over a whole load of blogs. When Tommy asked if I’d be happy to host a chapter of the story here I jumped [...]

This year the Bath Festival of Children’s Literature decided it would be a right laugh to start a blog story, co-written by a whole heap of children’s authors, illustrators, and other creative types.

I’m in the middle of getting ready for my trip to the Edinburgh Book Festival, but just nipped on to post this picture. It’s pretty self-explanatory, really.

I’ve been waiting a long time for this one, as it’s my favourite of the series so far for all sorts of reasons (and not just because it’s the scariest). To celebrate launch day I’ve done a new video [...]

The first review for INVISIBLE FIENDS: DOC MORTIS went online today, and by golly it’s a good ‘un. Here’s one of my favourite bits: Barry Hutchison has outdone himself yet again; I don’t know how the man copes with the pressure that he puts himself under as every book he writes raises the bar even [...]

I’ve got some public events coming up soon, and I thought I’d best let you know about them. You know, in case you wanted to come or that. It’d be lovely if you could. The first one, which I’m hugely excited about, is at this year’s Edinburgh International Book Festival. If you remember, I was [...]

A few new reviews for the Invisible Fiends series have popped up online recently, so I thought I’d link to them here, because they’re all lovely and positive. Well, I’m hardly going to link to bad ones am I? Not that there are any bad ones, of course. Perish the very thought. So, first up [...]
