Oh my goodness Jane - the cosmic egg book is wonderful! What a brilliant way to tell the story, it must have taken a good few post-it notes to work out!
I loved your pourquoi story so much! Such a lovely story, and so beautifully illustrated. I'm sure kids would love seeing the story hatch out of the egg as well - I know I did!
Dear Jane, my you have been busy and what a lovely newsletter chock full of interesting events! I kid you not, I was just looking at one of your diaries on IG and wondered how you’ve been. And here you are! I’ll come back and watch the videos tomorrow when I’ve had some rest. It’s 2:14am here and I’ve had a bit of insomnia. I think something must have told me I needed to stay awake for your post! 😉🌷
So glad you skipped getting the flu/etc., but now that I see it, it turns out it's catching, and I join you in your serious case of art envy for the kiddo collage! Mine is compounded by seeing your dog collage, too. (I love how elegant and long its legs are! Maybe a ballet dancer's name?) AND the invitation! And the zines! (And, goodness, don't get me started on the diary share or the Pourquoi story!)
I wish I could fit in your zine class that's about to kick off, but it's just too nuts around here at the moment. But I continue to check my calendar, because I really hope next time works out!
Also: congrats on your excellent Kirkus review, Jane! That Bob: what a charmer! :)
Oh it would be so much fun to have you in comics class Elayne! It will all happen again in Sept and Jan if you have a bit more time then… and thankyou for all the lovely comments dear reader! 🥰

Thankyou Nanette! And yes a few post-its were definitely helpful...
Thank you for a great read which is so full of inspiration. The child’s collage of the sun and sky is amazing!
I love your collage dog - you could animate him at the next Animation Pie when we do cut out characters!
Ooh I’m looking forward to that… going to catch up on the first one this week, I loved seeing those swirling brush strokes!
Thank you Jane, I was finally able to catch up on much needed sleep last night. Your videos were wonderful and again you continue to inspire me!
🥰🥰Thankyou Maggie - and I’m glad you got some sleep at last!
Thank you very much Jane for your kind words on Dotty! And you’ve been busy! What a creative month you had! So inspiring. X
That’s my pleasure, it’s a beautiful book! 🥰

Thankyou so much Martina! ❤️ It was really fun to make and I always love to be given a tight brief and quick turnaround.

Isn't that collage the best! Might have to copy it....
What a coincidence! I hope you are getting some sleep now Maggie, and hope you enjoy the videos in the morning! XX
