Nikki Tate visits!

Nikki Tate, our award-winning children's author, is visiting for a week. She's working on revisions to her third Tarragon Island novel (her twelfth book with Sono Nis), and starting research for a new project which we'll be documenting from initial idea to finished book in a blog we've created called:

Diary of a children's author and publisher

Here's a picture of Nikki engrossed in one of my favourite books, The Opposite of Fate: Memories of a Writing Life by Amy Tan, with Gus and Ophelia keeping her company:
