Yes they all decide to make massive changes right at the beginning of the busiest retail season, they all do it and its so frustrating. At a time we need to be preparing for Christmas, we're yet again working on our shops. It beggars belief really xx

Oh yes. I love being by the sea or anywhere that it's ancient land sometimes you definitely feel like you're being transported back in time ❤️

Hi yes I'm ok , business is good at the moment but it's been erratic all year and Amazon are reclassifying their catalogue at the moment so it's up and down! X how's things with you?

Some art for #BlueSkyMonday. This piece has been created using different shades of blue, and is one of the pieces for the book of poetry (soon to be published, hopefully).

I took a great photo of a swathe of ribbles at a beautiful beach in Norfolk... Holkham beach it was called, it was like going back to the beginning of time, wild and beautiful ;)

It’s bookshop day on 11th October. A day to celebrate your local bookshop.

You could even go totally bananas and buy my latest, Saltburn, which is about, after all, small businesses being assailed by big business. Well, that’s one thing it’s about…

booksaremybag.com/BookshopDay/...

The bookshop day poster. It asks you to choose bookshops:

Local jobs
Local economy
Local community
Real passion
Real people
Real conversations
Proper service
Perfect gifts
(and taxes paid!)

The cover of Saltburn. Candy stripes coming from a picture of a seal sitting under a beach umbrella.

Evening all. Sharing this wee hedgehog display dish. I made the little dish from kiln free clay and then painted this little snowy scene. Unique for a gift and one of a kind, you can view it here 👇

I took these photos last week with the intention of showing them to you 1 at a time, offering them for sale. However, they all sold out at the autumn fair last Sunday so thought I’d make a collage instead. I guess I’d better make some more before the Christmas fair! #downlandcrafters #craftbizparty

Diamond painting cards featuring 2 cat designs, birthday cake, heart balloons, tiger and a giraffe.
