• Limerick Leader - Older and Wiser!

    12 July 2021

    There was a lovely article about me in the Limerick Leader last week, in which I chat about how lockdown has affected my work and my family, and talk about the new Archibald Lox book that I released at the start of this month. It also has maybe my favourite headline ever -- "OLDER AND WISER!" Although, when I looked at the photo they'd chosen (which was taken several years ago, when I was releasing my Zom-B series) the editor in me did want to reach out and tweak it to the rather more accurate "OLDER AND WISER AND A HELL OF A LOT GREYER!!!" :-)

     

    It's difficult to get any kind of media coverage when you're a children's author, and about a dozen times more difficult if you self-publish your work (as I'm doing with the Archie books), but the good folk at the Limerick Leader have always been incredibly supportive of my work since I first started publishing books more than 20 years ago. I honestly do appreciate it, and now more than ever -- because of COVID, the paper is much shorter than it used to be, which means space is at a premium. So you'd be doing me a favour if you'd click on the following link and give the article a quick look -- it's important to support our press, especially when they're supporting children's authors!! :-)
