i'm the new booktrust writer-illustrator in residence!

BookTrust announced it this morning: I'm going to follow amazing writer-illustrator Cressida Cowell (How to Train Your Dragon) to be the next BookTrust Writer-Illustrator in Residence! You can read more about it over on my blog for BookTrust (and here in The Bookseller). Here's my first event, next Sunday in the Royal Festival Hall, that big Clore Ballroom when you first walk in. You don't need to book, but I'd advise getting there early to get a good seat. And bring your sketchbooks - grown-ups, too! Details on the Imagine Festival website here. In the meantime, here's a drawing of Beyoncé at The Grammys (because who wouldn't want to draw Beyoncé).
