Just watched the Japan vlog, OMG how much kawaii shite did she buy, and surely you can only have some many bloody bag charms. By about 10mins in I wanted to her because of the amount of times she said “LIKE”
Why does she think she's going to be doing book signing for children's books? I would get it if she was doing books for pre-teens and became a renowned author like Jacqueline Wilson, but she's doing books for toddlers who surely wont give a shit? (I don't have kids so I wouldn't know ha)
So if she had a real publisher they would push her to promote. So for picture books like this one it would be children's festivals children's lit fests and the session would usually be a book reading and an age appropriate activity, given she is an illustrator this could be a drawing or colouring play session. 4 and 5 year olds don't want signed books.
She told us three or four times that “Dean is a Director now”. Doesn't sound like there’s going to be much left to direct. His NVQ in warehousing and stock management will be somewhat wasted without a…. Warehouse or erm… stock?
Still “Director” sounds good doesn’t it. Although we still don’t know why he’s using different surnames for different directorships. Hope they’re not up to anything dodgy!
Well she said that he’s effectively been running the business. Stock, admin, accounts, suppliers, all of it. sounded like she was totally dependent on him. Presumably all of this is while she’s been pissing about drawing blobs with eyes and going to Disney.
If she’s been thinking about closing her studios and working from home for a while, then why didn’t her & Dean make converting their garage top priority? (She’d probably argue all their time & money was paying for the studios…and their endless trips to Japan & Disney )
It's the same at Twattan, they can only survive in the Disney or Kawaii bubbles. I've noticed on IG that Dean is on a weight loss journey so he must have piled on the pounds.
Has she been to the Ghibli park or museum? I can't understand not going especially when you have an interest in art and character design and storytelling.
