Today my guest is Eva Amores, an Author & Designer. Along the way, we refer to a few visuals, so you might like to explore the links in the show notes so you can view the designs as you listen. In this episode, in the atmosphere of a busy outdoor cafe, we ask the question: Have you ever had a bad week? We find out about Eva's background and enthusiasm for arts and design and working in various professional roles. We chat about design processes and how they can be used to answer a question or to serve a function or purpose. We also talk about Eva's junior fiction book series Worse Week Ever, the humorous story of an ordinary boy forced to engage and deal with a series of extraordinary, unexpected, and sometimes unpleasant events. Through the various challenges creatively explored in the books, the main character is supported and encouraged by his social connections to keep going, which, in turn, strengthens his resilience. The book series, a positive and creative response developed during the global pandemic, is a creative collaboration with co-author, illustrator, and Eva's husband Matt Cosgrove. We explore Eva and Matt's design and writing approaches and how they often use real-life experiences as a starting point for storytelling. These ideas are then suitably exaggerated and amplified. Eva explains how using a comic art format, combining illustrations and text within strategically paced storylines, helps to engage audiences and encourage reluctant readers.

Do you enjoy drawing? Unless you enjoy life drawing, or graphic design, it’s fairly likely you only spend time doodling on the edges of notes in dull work meetings. But remember when you were a kid, and you loved drawing? In fact, it was both fun and a challenge. Why don’t we draw like we used to?I discussed all of this with Matt Cosgrove, Sydney-based author and illustrator of the hugely successful Macca the Alpaca picture books. His illustrations are gorgeous, and he is very passionate about seeing kids develop a love for drawing that extends well beyond their youth. We also spoke about his new book, his previous work drawing cartoons for game show Burgo's Catch Phrase, and how best to discover or re-discover a love of drawing, no matter your age.Matt Cosgrove’s new book Dharma the Llama is out now.
