It’s not your door…and that’s ok! This feel

It’s not your door...and that’s ok!

This feels like an updated version of the golden is oldie ‘when one door closes another door opens’.

So true right!? If you’ve seen my stories you’ll know why I drew this tonight.

I’m also living my best stylish life through my illustrations because this is me with turquoise hair, a pink knit and the best set of yellow pearls that Etsy can find! Ha ha.

Today is #worldarthiritisday so I’m going to sha

Today is #worldarthiritisday so I’m going to share a little bit of my story. I have #psoriaticarthritis which, in simple terms, means my immune system is attacking my joints having previously attacked my skin (psoriasis). My arthritis is now predominantly in both my feet, specifically my Achilles’ tendons, (swipe right for a look!) plantar fascia and the occasional finger! I often wear crocs as they are sometimes the only shoes that fit that day or are comfortable…it’s not a fashion choice!! 🐊 😂

I was officially diagnosed in 2020 having limped around for about 2 years. You can’t see my arthritis, especially in photos/on social media(!), but if you were to see me walking you’d see the pain. My feet are sore on a daily basis and some days are definitely worse than others. Part of my learning curve has definitely been knowing when to say no, when to stop and when to slow down.

Mentally, it’s taken a toll at points but having switched up my diet and prioritised my health I feel better about the journey I’m on in figuring out how I live with this disease. Everyone’s experience is different.

It took a while to come to terms with the diagnosis but I now genuinely feel the changes I’m making (diet/stress) due to my arthritis should also have a positive impact long term on my health. Every cloud!

So why am I sharing this? This is not intended to be a sympathy post (hence why I’ve turned off comments!). It’s more about finding a community of people for support, encouragement and learning.

So this is me, author/illustrator, mum and living with psoriatic arthritis 💪🏻. it doesn’t define me but it is part of my story.

These are some of the accounts that I’ve found helpful in learning about the immune system and specifically arthritis ;

It’s been 1 whole year since ‘The Girl who Sto

It’s been 1 whole year since ‘The Girl who Stole the Stars’ arrived in print and I would like to say a HUGE HUGE thank you to all of you for supporting me on this journey. From buying a copy of my book, to liking a post or sharing my work and for putting up with my rants and ramblings on stories!!

To say thanks I asked you all to let me know if there was something you’d like me to do for you. There were a ton of responses so I combined my two favourite ideas. Here goes…

I’m looking for a primary school class that would love to receive a signed copy of my book (thanks @flanamation for this suggestion).

I’m also loving the idea of drawing a personalised illustration (loads of you suggested this!) so here’s the plan….

If you would like a personalised illustration and know a class that would love a book then please comment below with the name of the school 👇🏻

If you want to enter more than once please comment with another school.
I’ll chose someone at random by the end of the week. Yay!!

I’m already started to get excited about Decembe

I’m already started to get excited about December. Not because of Christmas (I’m bit ‘bah-humbug’!) but more because this year I *should be able to do some real live events with ‘The Girl who Stole the Stars’!!! (Unlike last year when Covid successfully ruined every single plan I had.)

So what’s the plan this year? I’m going to be taking part in several story telling events across Scotland. All going well, me and ‘the girl’ will be on tour so watch this space for more information nearer the time. There will be mulled wine and mince pies, stars and dark skies and maybe even a special surprise ….yay!!

“Failure is a fact” @elizabday

I’ve recently been listening to @steven ‘s podcast and the episode on embracing failure with Elizabeth Day (author of ‘Failosophy’) was brilliant. It was a great reminder that life doesn’t always go to plan and things don’t always work out. FACT.

So if failure is a fact then it becomes more about learning how to handle the emotions that come with it. One for all you teachers out there!!

Anyway, it was fun to draw this new character tonight (Business Bear!) and maybe he’ll pop up again with more words of wisdom!

Today is a good day. Want to know why?

1. I’ve set up an Instagram shop and it works 🙏🏻

2. I’ve tagged products 🏷

3. I turned an illustration in to something else 👕

Small wins but nice to make some progress with figuring out this online shopping world!

My Hocus Pocus T-shirt’s are now available in age 3-4 (£9.99)and age 6-8 (£14.99). If you are looking for a different size let me know as if there is enough demand I’ll do another print run.

PS I’ve had lots of requests for adult sizes too which I’m investigating!!

Now back to trying to get that ‘swipe up’ thingy….😂

@niaadennis you were too good not to be included i

@niaadennis you were too good not to be included in my sketchbook of inspirational women. There were so many amazing outfits at the #metgala2021 it was hard to chose which ones to sketch out but combining gymnastics and the red carpet was a winner for me!!

Anyone else have any faves from the #metgala that I might want to add check out?

What were you doing when you were 18? I’m a hug

What were you doing when you were 18?

I’m a huge sports fan so it’s not surprising that I was up late watching the #usopen last night to see @emmaraducanu win the tournament. At 18 years old it’s hard not to be impressed at her composure, talent and sheer determination, but for me last night was simply brilliant tennis. Both players demonstrated incredible skill and sportsmanship, but (more importantly?) I know that they will inspire a new generation of girls in sport.

Massive congrats to both @emmaraducanu and @leylahannietennis for all they achieved, and personal thanks from me for showing my girls that anything is possible.

PS SWIPE RIGHT to see the original image 👉🏻
