I write books for children and adults, make maps and illustrations, and teach writing. I live on a farm on Dartmoor in Devon.
My work ranges from The Last Englishman, a biography of Arthur Ransome, to the adventures of Billy Shaman and Nelly Peabody, and the maps for Lev Grossman’s Magicians trilogy.
Explore my books for children and adults, including The War of the Heavenly Horses, the second Billy Shaman adventure. I illustrate my own books and other people’s, and take commissions for maps and other projects.
The maps I drew for Lev Grossman’s Magicians trilogy are available as signed, limited-edition prints: Fillory, the voyage of the Muntjac and Quentin Coldwater’s worlds.
£100 each, with free shipping.
I offer school visits, workshops for adults, and individual tutoring or mentoring. I am also a Royal Literary Fund Fellow at the University of Exeter’s Law School.
