I don't usually, but I thought why not?
I'm currently doing a dummy for my picture book text, Theophilus Prowse, Head Louse about a girl with head lice and her mum's extreme delousing techniques. This is the Nit and Lice Vacuum Device.

Freebie Alert! Download these web survival tools that I helpfully compiled for my 2007 talk Who’s Afraid of the World Wide Web – on how authors can survive the New Realities of the Internet.
The excellent Anita Loughrey interviewed me in anticipation of my talk in Bologna and here it is on the Cynsations blog.
Undiscovered Voices, the ground-breaking anthology published by British SCBWI in association with Working Partners is out! My novel Ugly City won a place in the anthology at last year's competition. Buy the anthology.
My cartoon is featured on the cover of Simon Morse's
The Pregnant Guy: Journey to the Center of the Birth.
Simon found my unpublished pregnancy cartoon collection Who Are You And Why Are You Standing On My Bladder on my homepage.
Simon's book answers previously neglected issues that affect expectant fathers such as "Am I getting fat?".
All pregnant fathers must buy this book - it will be a nice thing to read while sleeping on the couch once the baby is born.
