Illustrator wanted for magical €5k publishing deal

IF YOU can draw inspiration from wizards and fairies then you could land a €5,000 publishing deal.

Leading printing house Mercier Press has launched a competition to find an illustrator who will be launched in the fiercely competitive world of children’s book publishing.

The company is looking for what it describes as “an exciting talent” to illustrate the new edition of Patricia Lynch’s classic title Tales of Irish Enchantment featuring wizards, fairies, heroes, villains and surprises.
