MY WEEK 

t's been a week of breaking story, with work continuing on the last Star Wars: The High Republic phases, plus a new animated project I'm involved in and an exciting idea for something non-Star Warsy that I have been concocting with one of my High Republic co-creators.

But it hasn't all been work, work, work. Tuesday saw me getting together with George Mann for our monthly meet-up where we packaged up a show proposal and pilot script we've been working on for a while. The resulting emails sent off, we headed to a local pub to enjoy an early Christmas lunch (which also gave me the chance to show off my new Box of Delights t-shirt!)

NEWS & UPDATES

• The launch of my adaptation of Andrew Lloyd-Webber's The Phantom of the Opera has brought a flurry of promotion. First up, there's this awesome trailer:

• Then, Playbill interviewed me about the adaptation and including lots of lovely preview art.

• Granted, this isn't exactly news, but I did share some of the geeky stuff on our Christmas tree over on Instagram. Well, it is the silly season after all!

FAN ART & CREATIONS

• If you know me, you know I love Ewoks. In fact, a big part of my original pitch for the Life Day Treasury was the line 'Ewoks in the snow'. So, I am chuffed to little Wicket-sized pieces that instagrammer Bluemilkmama has chosen the Ewok story in the Treasury to kick off her series of bakes inspired by the book.
