Foxrooms: Retelling Camping: An I.B.F.Fs Friendship Tale

I'm afraid to say that I have edited all the drug references out of Camping: An I.B.F.Fs Friendship Tale to make it more suitable for kids when published. I've changed the magic mushrooms to magic foxgloves to avoid controversy with publishers for including drug references in a children's book, just like how they included the same material for The Magic Roundabout in the '70s. Have a read here:

The Happiness Project - 2021 - 18.5.21



My surprise came - it was a whole stack of books featuring relatable issues for girls.

One Line A Day - 2021 - 18.5.21



It was worth the wait, but the surprise came. It was a stack of girls' books featuring relatable cringe-worthy issues.

Express Yourself - 18.5.21



My surprise came today as did my Q&A A Day book - these books are full of relatable girl experiences.

Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Journal - 18.5.21



Today was a big, long wait for my surprise. I waited so long and so hard that I immediately fell tired and took a nap, but I got up just in time to see Bluey.


Later, the surprise came, as did my Q&A A Day book - it was a whole stack of books for girls! Those include a few American Girl Smart Girls' Guide books, The Embarrassing Life Of Lottie Brooks, Worst Holiday Ever and a few others. These books are a result of my clumsy, mixed up attitude and will help me be the girl, woman and author the world wants me to be.

Q&A A Day For Kids - 2021 - 18.4.21


I hate it when CBBC takes Scream Street away. The same goes to Cream the rabbit, who hates when her own shows get cancelled.

50 Years Of The Mr Men

Last night, just after I saw Hardball, I watched a new Channel 4 documentary which celebrated 50 years of the Mr Men and Little Misses. I understand that they were loved by generations of children, including me obviously. The Mr Men have helped me along with Kipper through my early days of childhood. At the time, I didn't even know the Mr Men aired on Milkshake until now!

I still remember I used to have a Mr. Mischief and Little Miss Naughty painting apron, and when I started school I used to have a Mr. Bump ice pack for when I got hurt. They still do Mr Men icepacks today.

What's your favourite Mr Men memory, or, Mr Men-mory?
