Hello!
I’m Kirstie, a children's author and indie-publisher, based in Milton Keynes, UK.
I'm the author behind the Amazon best-selling picture book, The Witch’s Cat and the Cooking Catastrophe, and have since published several more picture books, including the award-winning, The Fairies: Petal & Nettle & The Big Birthday Surprise.
I help fellow indie-authors to publish their own books profitably. Find out how I can help you here.
I love to visit schools, where I get to combine my passion for writing, with a knack for inspiring children to get reading and writing. Find out more about my school visits here.
