Picture this

I'm sitting here with the dining table covered in luscious colour illustrations for my new picture book.
I didn't do the illustrations, I hasten to add - they are by Jobi Murphy, perhaps most famous for bringing Deborah Abela's Max Remy to life.
Max the superspy and my character, a crusty old stockman called Billabong Bill, couldn't be more different, but the drawings are sensational.
You'll have to wait until November to see for yourselves.
