Rhondda Book Fair

August 29, 2016 Kate4 Comments

I'm going... It's my first book fair as an author. I feel sick. I feel excited... and apprehensive. I feel it all and it worries me that I will get there and freeze. People will move past my table because I will be hiding behind a poster of a dragon. To make matters worse this… Continue reading Rhondda Book Fair

Fey is finally done

August 27, 2016 KateLeave a comment

Yes, Fey is up on Amazon... It's the last of the kid's books I had written and oddly it is the first one I wrote. I don't know why I was so scared of getting Fey into the limelight but I was. With pushing from my mum though I have finally finished him and he… Continue reading Fey is finally done

In truth I forget which day I did it. I have been putting the workshop in order and getting rid of the fabric store. At the moment I am sat in the middle of a mess. I have cottons one one side and a working computer on the other. Life is interesting and I am… Continue reading A doodle

The prompt was 'ready to go on stage' so I drew dancers. I sued to be one (yes, you can stop laughing now). When I was I child I loved it but never pursued it past my early teens. 'Backstage' is available on Zippi and Society 6.

Life

August 22, 2016 KateLeave a comment

It's strange how life can move in a circle. Today I found myself wanting, no needing to write. But I am working on a large project - a book - and that wasn't it. I wanted to do something short... Something flash-like. So I decided to go for a daily prompt. I may even do… Continue reading Life

I took the weekend off to do writer-ly type things so here is the latest doodle. 2Moons is available on Zippi and Society6. (I'm planning on getting a hoodie).

The next book

August 22, 2016 KateLeave a comment

The next kids book is almost ready to be let loose on Kindle and in paperback. It has been more scary doing the kids books than the adult ones. It's taken me a little by surprise but at the same time I have loved putting them together and writing them.

August 18, 2016 KateLeave a comment

I spent most of today putting up an exhibition in Tregaron's Memorial Hall. It is a group one so my three pieces are there with a table filled with books and cards. Only trouble is that for the first time I had to bail before all the art was up - my eyes are really… Continue reading Today’s doodle and news

I haven't been feeling great and it turns out I have a nasty eye infection. Today I saw the eye-doctor and he has said it will all get better. And I was cleared for using my eyes, even though the left isn't focusing properly. So today's doodle is okay but not my best. The prompt… Continue reading Today’s doodle
