#WritersCoffeeClub 1 Feb. Intro update: Shameless Self Promotion. Tell us about yourself, published work, WIP or anything else people should know.
Most of my info is in my bio, I am a maker (wood, metal, miniatures) but at the moment I am mostly a carer for two elderly parents while holding down a job working for Manchester Quakers.
I volunteer with Repair Cafes, a Working In Wood group, and spent the last year and a half (and counting) volunteering to build a community workshop.
I wrote and illustrated one small book back in the 90s about the adventures of an MGB and a Land Rover to remember my late brother (unpublished - see image).
Now I am writing about the adventures of #HarrietAndDaisy. I have made their homes, workshop, garden railway, and created their whole world as an ongoing pandemic lockdown project.
I love writing about them as much as photographing their vigettes and dioramas.
