Big thanks to Peter’s Books for picking our new graphic novel GLOBAL as one of their special Book Talk Cards this month. GLOBAL tells the story of two teenagers, in different parts of the world, whose lives are endangered by today’s climate change. Just like ILLEGAL, everything in the book is real, only the characters are fictional. #graphicnovel #comics #books #bookstodon #andrewdonkin #eoincolfer #climatechange #GlobalGraphicNovel

Just found this on my phone. It’s Giovanni, our wonderful artist on so many books, looking bold and strong in startling black and white in a Paris cafe. We were in the French capital for a comics festival. I think our graphic novel, Illegal, was shortlisted for an award. It was a great weekend and my daughter, Lexie, came too. It must have been 2018 or early 2019. #graphicnovels #comics #paris #giovannirigano #andrewdonkin #writers #writing #nooneisillegal #Illegalgraphicnovel
