My talk to Starkholmes WI

Wednesday, 8th February found me spending a delightful evening speaking to the ladies of Starkholmes WI.  They were interested to hear how I became a writer of children’s picture books and were keen for me to read “Alfie’s Story” to them.  They must have enjoyed the evening, as I made several sales of “Alfie’s Story”, and also of “Fearless Flynn” and “Arkwright the Duck”.

You can purchase all the books from my online shop if you click here.

    I’m so delighted that Lisa, one of the girls I met at Castle Hill in Bakewell years ago, now has her own florist shop called Rebecca Florist in Liskeard, Cornwall. Lisa has just agreed to sell my books and soft toys and is therefore my only stockist in Cornwall. Hope that if you’re ever in…

  • Alfie jets off to Oz

    I was recently surprised to receive an email from Australia.  Turns out that a very lovely grandmother who lives over there was on holiday in the UK last year and bought “Alfie’s Story” and an Alfie soft toy cat to go with it.  Back in Oz, she gave them both to her grandson, Finn. What…
