If I’m not working in the bookshop, I’ll write for three or more hours in bed. I read about 300 children’s books a year — both for review and because I love them. We also run workshops for adults who want to write children’s books. Comics books are hugely popular too, and we’ll have kids waiting for their next instalment of Dogman or of Sarah Bowie’s books. Again, it will mostly be children’s or young adult books but I do read books for adults too.
