Happy Mondays

This was me ten minutes ago when my fabulous husband found my Wacom tablet pen which I have been hunting for since Friday. I was despairing even more when I started to look into how much it was going to cost to replace it!

Our darling little daughter had pushed it into a gap under a kitchen cabinet...about the only place I hadn't been on my hands and knees looking. Deep sigh of relief from me, and back to work now.

Hope you are having a happy Monday too. x

Been Doggy Doodling


Well I know it's been a while, but I have been busy drawing many things... guinea pigs, alpacas and lots of spotty dogs! Sharing with you a couple of of illos that introduce two new characters who I have a real soft spot for so watch this space. x

It was an exciting moment today when I discovered that my new book for Harper Collins had been put up on Amazon. Unfortunately it is not available to purchase yet but you can pre-order! I really hope you all like it when it comes out x

It's taken a bit of a marathon effort for me to get here but I have been working hard to get my fitness back into order after becoming a mum. So to celebrate and to give me a goal I am doing a 10k race on 8th May and using the opportunity to raise some cash for the fantastic Sick Kids charity. If you would like to sponsor me, you can click here no donation is too small and every penny counts and will help keep me going!
Thank you!! xx

Rubbing Noses with the Book Sniffer!


I've been having great fun talking all things children's books with the utterly charming Book Sniffer, as well as trying to do a bit of doggy match-making! Read it all on this fantastic blog, and follow it to get the heads-up on the what's new and exciting in the field of Children's Books.

March Hare (just running a bit late!)

Continuing in the spirit of Spring, I came across this drawing in a sketchbook the other day which was part of a series of sketches I did watching a field full of Mad March Hares a few years ago. I love coming across things like this, it reminds me to go out and draw from life more often!
