Footscray Library has bug book copies now.

Over 20 copies of the bug book in libraries in Singapore.
They have a much bigger selection of parasite books for kids than I would have expected.

I've been learning Blender (a 3D graphics program). Most of the things I make are still by following tutorials, but I'm slowly improving.

It's bug book US release day!

Hardback and ebook are now available in the USA.

It's mainly available through online stores (Amazon, https://t.co/swi6bzoAAQ, Barnes & Noble, etc) but I'd love a photo if anyone sees a copy in the wild. :)

UK release in a couple of days.

Mind-controlling Bugs is an illustrated non-fiction book for kids and is now on sale in Australia. Readings Kids in Carlton had a pile of Mind-controlling Bugs on display and I signed the copies. There's even a copy on display in the shop window.

I first started writing for publication in 1991. 34 years later, for the first time I was able to walk into a book shop and see a book I'd written on display.

[Aidan Doyle @aidan_doyle]

I've had over 100 short stories and articles published. My first professional publication was an article in Dragon Magazine I wrote when I was 17. But until now a traditional book deal had eluded me.

[Aidan Doyle @aidan_doyle]

You can order online now from a variety of places in Australia and coming to book stores in the next few days. Cover and illustration by Astred Hicks. Published by Hardie Grant. UK/US release day in July.
