Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Liv Lorkin is a heart-led children's book author, illustrator and visual storyteller.
Since packing books underneath her bed as a child, she’s loved reading, writing and colouring outside the lines. With a blended background in science and a career in design, she creates thoughtful stories that spread messages of hope and joy.
When not immersed in illustrating, she can be found exploring gardens, finishing a good puzzle and drinking her third cup of tea.
In this episode of Not the Plot, Liv talks about her 'Joy Jars', following the nudges of life, redirection - not rejection, and how zooming out on a situation can change perspective.
Her top tips for aspiring writers:
* Follow your own path
*Practise your craft
*Connect with community
* Have a life outside your passion
