edit data

Jonathan Gould has lived in Melbourne, Australia all his life, except when he hasn’t. He has written comedy sketches for both the theatre and radio, as well as several published children’s books for the educational market.

He likes to refer to his stories as dag-lit because they don’t easily fit into recognisable genres (dag is Australian slang for a person who is unfashionable and doesn’t follow the crowd – but in an amusing and fun way). You might think of them as comic fantasies, or modern fairytales for the young and the young-at-heart.

Over the years, his writing has been compared to Douglas Adams, Monty Python, A.A. Milne, Lewis Carroll, the Goons and even Enid Blyton (in a good way).

Hooray I’m back – with some big news

I know. It’s been a while since you’ve seen me.

The past year has been pretty intense. Lots going on at both work and family level, so unfortunately I haven’t had the time or energy to keep working on my blog.

But today I’m back, because I have very big news.

I’m proud to announce the release of my new novel – The Shield of Delos.

It’s been a lot of work – a labour of love that has taken me almost six
