Julian gives the best interviews ever. I still remember the one when he declared he would spend his latest advance on socks.

Ian Eagleton did a lovely interview with me, over at The Reading Realm, about my new children’s book with the brilliant Jim Field, This Lake is Fake!

Lots of behind-the-scenes Rabbit & Bear gossip, plus The True And Shocking Story of the Real Guano Islands.

You also get a refreshing breeze when the roof blows off.

Oh man, she said it out loud. YOU'RE NOT MEANT TO SAY IT OUT LOUD.

If I write a paper and you write a paper, each of us has one paper. If we each agree to put each other as a co-author on the paper, now each of us has two papers. Lots of academics figure this out very quickly...

The guys behind Zig & Zag love Rabbit & Bear, so I can retire now, satisfied.

Well worth a read. Personally, I welcome our new asteroid-mining overlords.

Using estimates of world population and average life expectancy throughout human history, we can estimate the total number of human years that have been lived: about 3.6 trillion. That's about 21 quadrillion waking human hours experienced by a human.

Human history goes back…

Laugh out loud with Rabbit & Bear in the brand new title in the series, This Lake is Fake!

The perfect series to support independent reading from Julian Gough is writing The Egg & the Rock 🥚/🪨 and Jim Field 🌼

Why don’t we all just live rent-free in each other’s heads?

My father died a couple of weeks ago. He was a terrific dad; but he was also a really interesting guy, who lived what was, in some ways, an exemplary Irish life. In his own small way, he was shaped by the old Ireland; and then he helped shape the new one. irishtimes.com/culture/books/…

It's arrived!

I know what I'm reading for my kids' bedtime tonight.

God we loved Rabbit and Bear in this house. When reading out loud, my Rabbit voice was inspired by Moira Rose. It worked a treat.
Kids are big now, but we will be gifting this to younger cousins. (We'll give it a sneaky read first.) Highly recommend.

Happy publication day to our wonderful authors and illustrators who have books hitting shelves today!
