So I hardly ever use Twitter (and barely know what I’m doing) but when I do, I often win books! Thank you Picture Book Book Club !! I can’t wait to read Whitney & Britney Chicken Detectives by @LucindaGifford

A1. One of my favourite dog-themed picture books has to be Gaston. I love the odd-one-out theme and I love the illustration style. #picbookbc

A1. This gorgeous book takes a look at love and belonging - that a dog’s first home may not be their forever home, and that the bond between child and dog is precious #picbookbc

A2. Hmmm... good question... maybe dogs are great PB characters because they are relatable, there are so many different breeds and each has their own characteristics, so lots of personality stuff to play with? #picbookbc

Your illustration style is the perfect balance of being warm and rich but not over-complicated (something I’m aspiring to!) ... do you have any words of wisdom from your journey? Richard Jones #picbookbc

I don’t know who started it and who was copying over someone’s shoulder, but can we please stop spelling ‘divine’ incorrectly? It’s taken off like a fast-growing weed! #divinenotdevine

Is there a German word for person in glass house who throws rock at other house, that they claim is also made of glass, but turns out that is untrue and the rock bounces straight back and smashes their glass house?

And it’s a cover reveal... I absolutely loved working on the illustrations for this incredible new anthology with contributions from such an amazing line up of authors and illustrators! Launching at end of May, so keep your eyes peeled for order details...

It’s an honour to be longlisted for the CBCA NSW Aspiring Writers Mentorship Program which has kicked off the careers of writers such as Jacqueline Harvey, Oliver Phommavanh, and Nathan Luff. Best of luck to my fellow longlisters and a big thanks to the organisers and supporters!
