What an interesting approach to a book! I will not attempt to follow in your footsteps, as my drawing is terrible and my handwriting is illegible. Enjoy your trip!
Neera, this is sooo lovely! I adore your illustrations and your combination of historical and personal info. (I'll also be in London briefly this month, so it's getting me excited!) Thanks for mentioning my work! ❤️
Thank you soo much for stopping by and leaving me a note. Dare I say that your ‘Magic Questions’ helped. I ran out of time to fully explore all the questions. Usually it takes about 4-5 weeks for a book to form. As you might know I write my books in public, a chapter a week. I am hoping to improve my sketching skills with this one. They have rusted as I haven’t touched them for almost six months.
How lovely to be able to see your daughters, I note they must live at or near Islington. We went to St Mary’s Church on one of our visits to the UK as that is where my Great Great Grandparents were married. They are buried in Kensall Green cemetery. Love your sketches, you do them so well. Don’t hold your breath waiting for the girls to come home, our son has been there for 25 years, and would come, back except he has two daughters who can’t come with him yet.
Thanks Sally. Indeed it is lovely to see my daughters. Yes they live in Islington. I will check out St Mary’s Church. Yeah, you’re right, I better not hold my breath for them coming back home.
Best of luck on the new book Neera 👏 I'm looking forward to being inspired by your pages.
Thanks Brad.
Very stylish visual journal, love it!
Thanks Bree.
Well done! 👍🏽
Thanks Amie.

Ha Ha! Just try it. You might surprise yourself. I only started sketching just a few years ago.

Your sketching hardly looks rusty! This is beautiful! I'm glad the Scene Magic helped too! ❤️
Great to read this, Neera. Lovely illustrations. Thanks!
Yes, London has a special charm. I stay in the neighboring city, Birmingham.
Thank you T. S.

I have a neice near Richmond park. And I loved London. Keep going with your blogs! Thanks
Great. Maybe someday we meet here. Thanks for reading my blog and leaving a comment, it always makes my day.
What a fun format! I love how you continually reinvent yourself.
Thanks Ilona. Yeah, I like doing new things. Keeps me happy. It’s my blessing and curse.
Thanks Neera. Went ro London recently. Liked your blog
Thanks Nalini. Nice to hear from you. Do you have a family in London or did you go there to travel?
