I had been thinking that July had been a quiet month. Then I thought again. Early in the month I went walking with Country Walking magazine for an article coming out in August. Needless to say after weeks of sunshine it rained all day and we walked in the rain. But I am told that the images match the brooding nature of my paintings. Hoping that the team will come back and do an article for another magazine about my amazing walking cats who love to walk with the dogs and like nothing better than the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. Also I did an interview with Christina Hardyment for the Oxford Muse Project, which was challenging and thought provoking. |
Other than that life has been all painting.
I went for a "Bat Walk" with friends who are setting up a new business, and that was fascinating.
A long finned pilot whale washed up on Porth Lisky beach and we went to have a look. Beautiful but very sad.
| I am steadily working my way towards the end of the Little One project with Little Brown and becoming obsessed with pirates as I work towards the beginnings of a novel, hopefully. |

The Seal Children has won the Tir na n-Og, awarded by the Welsh Books Council, and I am thrilled.
I was also childishly delighted to receive through the post a Korean edition of The Seal Children and Lord of the Forest, closely followed by the fourth reprint of the Portuguese Brazilian Greatest Gift.
