Go Home Stay Home - Life with Covid-19

Here’s a little media experiment for a story I’ve been developing for the past year about a little boy who has to stay home.
It’s kind of crazy that in the space of a week this is now a reality for many families world wide. My story despite this sad beginning turns into an unbelievably, adventuress tale with lots of laughter along the way. Stories are great like that - they can transport you from one place to another and draw your attention to things you hadn’t considered.

For all of you who are at home right now there are so many wonderful authors, illustrators and musicians who are sharing their gifts to brighten the days indoors.
Here are just a few of my favourites - follow them with me if you like!

@macbarnett - laugh a minute storytelling picture books and chapter books.
@oliverjeffers - story reading and picture telling - maybe drawing too?
@carsonellis - drawing promps and storytelling.

Inspector Brunswick - Sneak Peak

This coming March I will achieve an all time dream to release my first children's book! Co-written by myself and my great friend and collaborator Chris Lam Sam. We have been working away for some time with these characters and very soon will be able to introduce you to 'Inspector Brunswick' and 'The Case of the Missing Eyebrow' in book form!

This character is very dear to me for so many reasons but mostly I am delighted to see him and his loyal assistant Nelson join together in their first mystery! It has been published by the TATE in the UK who are famous among other things for their beautiful museums TATE Modern, TATE Britain etc.. Chris and I could scarcely believe it when we heard the great news last year that our first story, the first in a series, would be published and it has been a joy to work on so far!

So over the next few weeks we have decided to give you a sneak peak into the world of Inspector Brunswick, introduce you to some of his fellow storybook characters and get excited with you all about their first debut on the world stage!!!
