Scottish author-illustrator based in Brum. I make picture books about animals and trees, and am exploring social media options that don't make it feel like my mind is unraveling at speed. :) Let's see how this goes.

Anyone had any experience of printing hardback comics? I'm looking to go big and bold with my new release next year.
Any recommendations of printers in the UK/Europe? Any pitfalls of the process I should avoid?

I couldn't find anything about this in English.

But summarizing it, the article says that during the pandemic lockdowns in Santiago de Compostela, there was a chance to study pavement temperature. It was discovered that in places where the grass and moss was not removed, the temperature was up to 20 degrees lower than in places where it was.

More moss and grass make our physical spaces more liveable in these times of #ClimateCrisis.

I put together a sticker print file for any other artists and online businesses that would like to show their support for the Royal Mail Group strikes for fair pay.

The Waiting Place…

Waiting for a train to go
or a bus to come,
or a plane to go
or the mail to come,
or the rain to go
or the phone to ring,
or the snow to snow
or waiting around for a
Yes or a No
or waiting for their hair to grow
Everyone is just waiting

The Lightbringers are beginning their gathering of the light to keep it safe for us. These little ones will all be in the Yule collection on Saturday if you’d like a little light to see you through the winter.

If you can, please plant (or look after) a native hedgerow. Unlike fences, hedges have superb wildlife value. A hedge can help hedgehogs, bumblebees, blackbirds, frogs, butterflies, robins, bats, hoverflies, wrens... and many more creatures, while soaking up CO2. Here's a quick how-to guide: https://bit.ly/3Vg4thZ
