I write for magazines (primarily about architecture and design) so you’d think I’d be numb about spotting my name on a story’s byline, but when it comes to Frankie magazine, my heart went all a flutter!

Read me in issue #49 of Frankie magazine on 5 ways to be creative. I’m a big fan of what they do, so it’s an extra thrill to be on there! Thanks so much Jo!

Thanks for taking this picture Nancy! If you want a better close up, see this digital screenshot (Thanks Marina!)

Happy weekend folks!

Becky from LOAf Magazine sent me an email about the upcoming launch of their magazine – a comic magazine intended for children aged between 9 to 12, jam-packed with comics, stories, puzzles and more!

But in order to move forward and ship their first magazine in November, they’ll need your help – they’ve put their project out on Peoplefund.it where they hope to raise £2,000 for their first printing round as well as to organize workshops.

They have gotten some lovely illustrators on board, and we have some sneak peeks to show you!

Go on and give them a hand and help push LOAf magazine out there – you can read more about their mission and help out with a pledge!

Fun pencil shaving art by Marta Altes – love that expression by that flamenco dancer! Marta studied graphic design in Barcelona but moved to London to pursue her interest in illustration; and now she has a few children’s books under her belt!
