THE STORY CABIN – WRITERS WORKSHOPS
Where I Write (and What’s Coming Soon!)
I write wherever the words find me … and sometimes that’s in the most peculiar places! I’ve scribbled story ideas in my car, jotted down rhymes by the side of a football pitch, and typed out texts between school runs. But most often, you’ll find me in my favourite writing spot: a little wooden cabin at the end of my garden. It’s quiet, cosy (complete with fairy lights), and just magical enough to make stories come to life.
Writing around the kids’ schedules has taught me to be flexible and to really appreciate my creative time … even if it’s just a ten-minute burst with a notebook and a cup of tea.
And soon, I’ll be sharing that creative joy with others! I’m currently putting together picture book writing workshops for fellow authors — whether you're just starting out or looking to sharpen your storytelling skills. These sessions will be full of practical tips, playful exercises, and plenty of encouragement.
Watch this space — I can’t wait to write with you!
