Foyles hosts The House That Groaned Launch Party!
I’m still reeling from the fantastic launch party last Thursday at Foyles in Charing Cross Road! Crowds of smiley people shrugged off their back-to-work blues and came to welcome my first graphic novel The House That Groaned into the world. A huge thank you to Susan Yan Mach and Sabrina Dallot-Seguro for the excellent photos below!
We had magician Olive Meech producing flames and water from the book, We had life-sized cartoon characters walking around (thank you Rachel, Suzie and Jules!) and Emily Grogan from Brighton Bakery produced a beautiful house-shaped cake (so good it made me groan!).
Many thanks also to Adam Zygadlo for his epic animation and Jonathan Plackett for his stunning interactive website www.thehousethatgroaned.com.
