The world is built on it... My life is built on it... I tried to explain it to someone the other day. Every relationship I have I trust, either for them to be friends or more. I lived in the Midlands during the 70's and right the way through to the 90's. In 2000 I… Continue reading Trust

Subdued
My personality is a little subdued, at least some of the time. I take pleasure in the small stuff; creating a good sentence or having the wind in my face. Sure I can be bubbly and over the top but it isn't the everyday me. I can hold the bubbly Kate for a good day,… Continue reading Subdued
Clumsy
I am super clumsy... I have a condition called dyspraxia and one of it's many quirks is that I can't balance. Not at all. When I was eleven it took my mum six months to teach me how to balance on a bike. We were living in a large town at the time and on… Continue reading Clumsy
Promises

Art

Don't get me wrong. I am doing a load of pencil drawings but they are for artwork that is due… Continue reading Art
Tree
You know I once knew a woodsman... A guy who owned a husky and worked in the woods. In fact, as far as I know he is still there. I was doing a load of courses at a place called Denmark Farm and one of those courses was to create a composting loo. Why? I… Continue reading Tree
Breakthrough
I did the book fair... I shook to about noon and then after that I settled a little. It is strange to be in a place filled by readers. They were all looking for books and they want to talk to you... I loved talking to the kids. Telling them about the story-lines and the main… Continue reading Breakthrough
