I just got back from the Philippines last night after running a one-day presentation and workshop, and already I see the organizers have uploaded some images from the day here. I didn't have chance to take any snapshots myself (of course not, I was the speaker!), but I'll give a run-down of the trip in my next post. I'll just say for now that the organizers did a fantastic job, both SCBWI Manila and the British Council, my sincere gratitude goes out to them.

Tomorrow I'm off to the Philippines to host a presentation and workshop in Manila for SCBWI. Surprising to say, although I've overseen many such events given by other writers and artists here in Tokyo, I've never actually guested at one myself before. Prior to this the longest I've ever spoken for was 15 minutes in Paris a few years ago, as I've never run school visits either, this will be for all intensive purposes a debut speaking engagement (in English at least).

Here's a few interior drawings from Charlie Bone and the Castle of Mirrors (Japanese title: Umi ni Kirameku Kagami no Shiro). It's just been released in Japan now.

I recently finished illustrating Volume 4 of Jenny Nimmo's Charlie Bone series for it's Japanese edition. "Charlie Bone and the Castle of Mirrors" should be out on the streets of Japan very shortly.

Like the previous volumes it has around 30 black and white drawings to accompany the text, plus character studies and colour cover. Here's a sneak preview of the cover artwork.
