ARRIVAL: she made a book
Oh dear. A few copies of my book have arrived from the printer. I’ve held it. It is real.
I first began writing to my daughter whilst I was pregnant, a book to her older self to understand her younger self. It also became love letters to my inner child. I then had the intention to make it into a book, to inspire others to express their own stories in art or words.
My daughter got the first copy and played with it aallll day. I overheard her playing today and she said - “Once upon a time, there was a girl called Koa and she wrote a book”.
I am feeling proud and scared at the same time.
Now I am going to procrastinate the whole marketing journey and the organising of sales by reflecting on our past year. Writing and images coming soon.
