edit data

Tracey-anne lives in London with her family. She loves the diversity of her work as a mixed media artist and writer.

Certified to teach, her world is filled with various forms of creativity. Tracey-anne has exhibited art dolls in a Canadian gallery and has been published in various US magazines.

With her active imagination, mingled with a love of folklore and the old mysteries, she felt inspired to write a fictional story revolving around love and karma blending reality with fantasy. Her novel 'A Carpet of Purple Flowers' is the synchronicity of a writer's mind with an artistic heart.

Wow! Not posted in a while. I'm still about, promise :o)

Hi all,

It has been a year since posting here. HEY WHAT?!👀😋

Crazy how life has sped by. I've not been able to enjoy some pure creative time but I'd like to change that this year. The sequel to 'A Carpet of Purple Flowers' is nearly 400 pages in but I still have some serious edits to do. 👀

I'm self-publishing now (the contract ended with my publisher). It's quite a mission navigating around that
