Eve McDonnell is a children's book writer and artist based in Wexford, Ireland. Her debut middle-grade adventure, ELSETIME, won the 2017 Wells Festival of Literature Book for Children Award, and has since been nominated for even more awards!
Eve's blog says 'I’m Eve, I love naples-yellow and ultramarine, not to mention all the colours hiding in the black and white pages of a good children’s book. I write, and when I’m not writing, I’m painting. And when I’m not doing either, I’m a fire-spitting dragon hissing at myself to just start somewhere.'
Delving into her creative process and how she kept on writing, Simon Trewin will reveal the magic that is 'Elsetime' and how this sparkling debut author made the break from aspiring to published.
