Month: February 2026

Goodreads/Travels in March: York, Kirkcaldy & East Kilbride

Hey there,

Hope things are good. Spring is in the air. Yippee!

If you’ve been humming and hawing over picking up one of my books, then you might want to check them out on Goodreads, where readers post ratings and reviews. Also, if you’ve read one of the books and would like to post a rating/review and help other potential readers make a more informed choice, then that would be great. Good, bad or indifferent, feel free to tell the world (fingers crossed it’s the first one, though) 😊

2000 AD Annual 2026/Teesside & Dundee in February

I hope 2026 is proving okay so far. At least that’s January done 😊 I’m a wee bit late to the party, but I have a strip in the 200AD Annual 2026. Heads up to Goodreads for letting me know. It’s a reprint of Pandora, originally published yonks ago in the Megazine. Nice to see the strip resurrected and in particular to see the art of John Hicklenton back out there.

My first Con of the year takes me to Middlesbrough and Teesside Comic-Con on Sunday 8th February. My second takes me to Dundee on Saturday 14th February. Maybe see you at one or the other, but probably not both. Details to follow. 

Date: Sun 8 February 2026
