Red Sparrow Writers at RSPB Conwy

Join us for Halloween half-term fun on Tuesday the twenty-ninth of October, when Remy Dean, Kim Vertue and I will be at RSPB Conwy!

There will be a pop-up exhibition in the Look Out featuring illustrations by me and Remy. All three of us will be present for signings and chats, from 10:00am to 12:00pm. All are welcome. Prints and books will be available for purchase and signing.

Starting at 2 PM, there will be storytelling and fun activities, (see the RSPB’s website for booking details). Remy and Kim will read from their books, THIS, an epic fairy-tale fantasy, and Welcome to The Dragon Café, a magical, wacky story with Dragons and a talking lemon... and I will be hosting an illustration workshop, showing you how to draw characters from The Dragon Café.

Hope to see you there!

These four are the main characters in a weird, magical animal story set in the future, after the apocalypse...

Who knows when that'll get published...
