It's been quite busy lately with Quentin Wilson of Quentin Wilson Publishing who is bringing out my new young people's book later in the year. The book is called The Crate and it's a ghost story set in a village on the edge of a mysterious West Coast lake (loosely modelled on Moana and Lake Brunner). The cover is by Jenny Cooper who did the great illustrations for my collection of poems for young people Packing a Bag for Mars. It's suitably creepy - the book and the cover!
