So things have moved along so much with the writing and workshop and drawing thing that I decided it was time to get myself some business cards – I have been waiting for Moo to get a round corner cutter ever since I saw someone had bought one and done all their own cards individually. […]
I feel that with this number of poems I should be looking at grouping some of the Little Books of Poetry into larger collections. About 100 poems would be The Big Book of Poetry and Stories. A Mega book would be 1000 poems plus stories, fact files and craft activities. It is just something that […]
