The Author and Illustrator

· OG as you may suspect is not the writer’s real name. The motive for this deception will, for the moment, remain shrouded in mystery. Enough to say that under his/her real name OG has had two books published one of which, to everyone’s great surprise, was translated into Arabic in 2007. OG also writes a regular magazine column which is translated into eleven languages.
