This week at girl and duck, we opened The Scribbles Academy. It’s been super exciting and lots of people have jumped on board.
Thank you!!!! I know you’re going to love your Scribbly experience!
But how did this all begin?
What’s the real story behind girl and duck?
I wrote about this a couple of years back. But, in those early days, I was more interested in talking about the community. How passionate it was and how it seemed to sprout from nowhere.
More time has passed and now I want to go deeper. I want you, dear reader, to know exactly how I began my online business.
How and why I started it. And who was there to help me.
Ding Ding Ding! Multiple Income Streams!
Back in 2011, it occurred to me that I might NEVER make a liveable income from writing. No matter how many books…
One of my favourite contemporary children’s writers is Jen Storer. Wise, warm and wonderful, Jen imparts her wealth of knowledge on Girl and Duck online with Scribbles courses, Questions and Quacks videos, Facebook live sessions and a yearly Masterclass.
Here is a letter from Jen Storer
