Just signed a contract with an added a clause that states 'artwork is not created through the use of AI'
Such positive move and good to see Publishers supporting artists 😀

I want to bottle this moment! I’m so grateful to the librarians who championed #TheChestnutRoaster & nominated it for a Carnegie Medal. I can’t tell you what this means. Thank you! 🙏 Congrats, everyone - winners, all!

Day 30 (back on track 😀) #DIKBChallenge23 : A Spooky Book: Would You Rather - Halloween by Donna David & Eamonn O'Neill - a funny interactive book!
#DiscoverIrishKidsBooks

A lovely Halloween event today with illustrator Eamonn O'Neill! Donna David Macmillan Children's Books

Great to see author Donna David in #Wolverhampton this week! We now have signed copies of Donna's splendidly fun new book (with Eamonn O'Neill), Would You Rather: #Halloween .
Settle the big questions. Spider🕷️ or bat🦇? Skeleton☠️ or monster👹? Cute cat🐈 or wily werewolf🐺?

Can’t wait!🎃🎃

This background from the first episode of SCAVENGERS REIGN took me the longest to draw/paint.

Is there room on your shelf for a new Halloween book?
Of course there is!
Why not try this super fun this-or-that book aimed at pre-schoolers.

A little bit of the process behind making this illustration from Not A Cat In Sight written by @FrancesStickley

Happy #WorldBookDay everyone! 🐭🧀📚

Lovely to end the year with Not A Cat In Sight featured on this The Times Ireland list as chosen by booksellers all over Ireland! 🙏 💚🎄📚 bit.ly/3BHYoDR

I read & reread the email about 30 times.
Then I waited a few days to make sure it’s real.
Nobody has said otherwise, so...

I’m delighted to say I’ve received an The Arts Council / An Chomhairle Ealaíon literature bursary. Time and space to focus on writing and developing picture books. Unreal. 🙏✍️🎨
