Sandra and John from Glasgow’s Metaphrog will be taking part in a two-hour comics and graphic novel workshop as part of the Milgnavie Storytelling Festival on October 14th from 2 to 4pm at the Milngavie (pronounced ‘mill-guy’) Youth Cafe. The event is free but space is limited to you should book a place in advance – you can call the Youth Issues Team on 0141 761 4807 for details or to book a spot. Metaphrog will also be at the Imprint Book Festival in Kilmarnock on November 12th and will be at the Birmingham show this weekend; check their site for more details.

I bumped into Sandra and John during the Edinburgh Book Festival this summer and they said they have been working away on a brand new Louis graphic novel, entitled Night Salad. I see from their blog that the work is continuing nicely and in the new story “Louis will encounter tiny people leading him through a desert, a strange doctor and his minions, and a giant caterpillar” – something to look forward to.
