Thank-you and meet Ottaline

Thanks so much for all the great music suggestions folks! I'm really enjoying discovering all this new stuff!
I will put a list of the songs up soon, so you can all check them out :0)

I've been doing some little doodles, filling up one of the hundreds of little note books and sketchbooks I keep buying, (hopelessly addicted to little books and journals).
I'm doing a little story called 'Ottaline and Hotrod boy', and this is the first page...
If it turns out to be any good, I might bind a few up and put them in the shop, but at the moment it's just a fun, although terrifyingly dark, little project.



I also decided to start writing lists of things that I like, things to inspire...

if you click on the page, it will become bigger...as if by magic...




funny the things we like, isn't it!!

Thank you for sharing your favourite things, Erica (a lot of them are my favourite things too)
That book looks like it'll be very good. Do let me know if you put any on etsy!
How's the munchkin?

Hehe those lists made me chuckle... A lovely little peep into your mind! And I agree with a whole host of them too :)
Happy booking - how exciting!

I like lists like these, they're so good for getting a clearer picture about oneself and they all seem v.much like you!

Love the post cards, and most of the things written on them too. Ottaline - fantastic name, only ever come across it in a Rupert annual and that was many years ago.

Hi Erica,
I LOve this post! I'm totally addicted to little notebooks too, especially ones without lines. I think your list is my list - so very inspiring! I love the details in your drawing of Ottaline, it's gonna be FANTASTIC!x

You can't have too many neat little notebooks I say. Your list making (and handwriting) is charming.

And isn't it great, and necessary to work on terrifyingly dark things on occasion? :-)
