Book Art Studios

Oh my heart! A class in which I get to share with you the magic that happens when I work in collection (a series) of books.

I'll be starting from the beginning, answering all your booky questions, chatting with you about what I love in particular about working with more than one book at a time.

Watch or create along with me - go at your own pace!

As with all my classes, once I sink into the flow, who knows what will happen!!

Fancy coming to book launch to celebrate the arrival of The Department of Angels...my debut novel!

Message for address if you want to join us!

These are my two favourite boys in the world. Paulo & Christopher.

The dedication in my book The Department of Angels has been written to them.

I used to get up at 5am and write in a local cafe. I was using an old laptop Christopher had given me that only held its charge for an hour. So I had to learn to type fast!

Paulo would leave me coffee cards in my mailbox (anonymously at the time) so I could write every day. He told me later, he loved to see me writing in the cafe as he drove past to go to work.

They are such beautiful, thoughtful and loving souls.

It really does take a village to raise an artist/author and a tonne of wine and they are always generous with their wine!

When I wrote my first book - One Small Drop, Christopher asked for the first book off the press. He's continued that tradition and now has quite a collection, including the latest one.

Friends who believe in you when you're at your lowest, when you've lost faith in yourself are as precious as the air we breathe.

Thank you gorgeous boys and we'll celebrate in style at the book launch (bring your own wine and glasses). 😂

Love you! ❤️❤️
