Here are some slightly wonky photos of my new books, due out in March and April!

From the Stone Arch Website:

Comics Land welcome young readers into a world of funny and quirky adventures. Told in comic style, these stories feature easy-to-read text, follow common core curriculum standards, and include learning tools to help readers understand sequential art storytelling. Likeable characters and awesome art come together to make books that kids will want to read again and again.

Huzzah! I can now FINALLY talk about the awesome kid’s books I’ve been working on! For the last year, I’ve been drawing a set of graphic novels for 5-7 year olds with the absolutely awesome Stone Arch Books, who I met at the New York Comic Con way back in 2010. The series is called Comics Land and the books feature dinosaurs, robots, aliens and a whole lot of how-comics-work info for kids. The first two books, Dinosaurs For Breakfast and Snorkeling With Sea-Bots will be out at the beginning of March. I’m currently working on the second series of books which I also can’t wait to share as the stories are so much fun and feature monkeys, goats and a whole lot of beans! :P! Hopefully, I’ll be able to gate-crash Stone Arch’s booth at the San Diego Comic Con in July and help sell them! I’ll be blogging in more detail with artwork and character designs soon, but for now, here are the covers! :D

I’ve just restocked my online store with some more greetings cards! Each card is roughly 4x6 inches in size, printed on 350gsm card, comes with envelope and is blank inside. Each card also comes with a selection of stickers to decorate the envelope with! There are 10 designs to choose from so head over to my shop and take a look :D

Well, it looks like from the 7th of December, I’m going to be officially freelance! After having to make some decisions revolving around a big scary deadline, I’ve handed in my notice at my day job and will be taking the plunge! I’m also hoping that more free time, especially from Feb onwards, will mean I can get stuck back in to Milk Town - one of my pet projects. Scary but exciting! :D
