As many of my readers know, I have recently self published my very first children's book Celia's Coeliac Story. I have previously written about my step by step guide process of how I created my book for those who are thinking of self publishing. I was recently asked to read my book at Wimbledon's Bliss in the Park in South Park Gardens, which I was delighted to do. Storytime in the park is a really fun way of introducing children to new stories from storytellers, each with a 20 minute slot time.
This step by step guide is how I created my picture book Celia's Coeliac Story which is now being sold on Amazon Worldwide. I drew my illustrations on a watercolour pad, and used Aquatico watercolour pencils and a brush to colour. I then took pictures of each individual illustration, and edited using Photoshop, In design and Microsoft word.
After two years in the making, I have finally self published my children’s book! The main reason that I wanted…
Enjoying meals out with friends and family should be an enjoyable experience without stress or challenge. For many of us, eating out presents regular challenges and stresses, especially if we have coeliac disease, IBS, intolerances or food allergies
We have all been there. That voice inside our head that screams ''it's contaminated!'' when your not so helpful friend accidentally puts your bread in the toaster without the toastie bags! Or your boyfriend uses the same knife to dunk into your favourite jam, and then spreads it on his (gasp) non gluten free bread. So many gluten lurking opportunities, it's an absolute nightmare trying to keep on top of the cross contamination!
Hot off the press! Stella Artois have released a gluten free beer! I was lucky enough to sample the beer last weekend, after receiving the most gorgeous hamper! Stella Artois is the UKs number one brand, so creating this for the gluten free market will definitely be great for all those beer lovers out there. It is coeliac UK certified, and will be available throughout the UK this autumn.
