𝐆𝐞𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐜 Maylord Orchards Hereford - Summer Sunday Market this Sunday 13th July!

As it's our first Comic Con we are a little sure what to expect so we will be bringing our folktale 'Seal Mother A Selkie Tale in Verse' to be sold with the eco-friendly seal. Plus our picture book 'A Christmas Carol with Grandfather Time' and a plush snowperson also eco-friendly.

It was so exciting to be part of the wonderful Easter Storytime Event at Maylord Orchards Shopping Centre in Hereford.

Absolutely overjoyed when I received a wonderful five star review for 'Ruby's Easter Feast'. These little pocketbooks were created for slipping in a pocket or handbag to entertain the young or simply those of us young at heart.

Thank you for dropping by. It is with great pleasure that I announce my little book 'Lost Love In Spring' is included once again in the #IndieAuthorSpringSpectacular. It will sit amongst many great Indie Books by many talented authors who came together on Social Media namely Instagram.

Hello my Book Lover friends, forgive my tardiness at not keeping you all up to date with everything. My mind simply has not been able to focus recently. This is due to mum passing away (peacefully in her sleep) in December 2024. She is so missed. I always used to phone her with my ideas and news.

Imagine our surprise when we discovered Eco-friendly super soft plushies that would compliment our little pocketbooks so well. They are made out of recycled plastic bottles, if you can believe it. I was unsure myself as they are so soft. Anyway, first we found 'Calvin' the swan from Keel Eco and on their website they even gave us a breakdown of the process of how the toys are created A~MAZ~ING! I also managed to find a video I posted at the bottom of the page.

Well, I don’t know about you, but did you know that in the USA, May 10th is celebrated as National Clean Up Your Room Day? It seems like perfect timing, falling towards the end of Spring when many of us have already tackled a big Spring clean. But here in the UK, it feels like every day is Clean Up Your Room Day, especially if you have a mum who's always on top of things!

Great news we have just opened Ruby’s Em~PAW~rium, powered by Teemill, a sustainable UK print-on-demand t-shirt supplier dedicated to ending waste and steering brands towards a renewable, circular future.
