I have written, illustrated and published a series of children's picture books about slugs, spiders, woodlice and bugs. The books encourage small humans to laugh and learn about mini-beasts. I offer Key Stage One author/literacy visits to primary schools where we create character profiles, design front covers of books and then the pupils present their story - www.onceuponaslime.com

Self-publishing, it's a tricky business. I learned the hard way - by trial and error. Many moons ago (approx ten years) I had this clear vision: to write and publish a children's picture book I could take into schools and inspire kids to love reading. I also planned to make a bob or two by selling my books wherever I could... if possible. I wrote the story and illustrated the pictures (luckily I'm a graphic designer so I could do that bit myself!), got my first book printed and obtained the essential ISBN code I needed for my book to officially exist and be sold in bookshops. I (bravely!?) decided that I didn't want to commit to a publisher because I didn't want to sacrifice the majority of my earnings to the commission fees. Back then I didn't realise that self-publishing would be such a good decision! I've gone on to sell 10,000+ copies of my books mainly via author visits. I now have four books in my Once-Upon-A-Slime series and I still sell thousands every year - all without having a publisher!If any of this sounds familiar... I promise you can do it too! I created Fi & Books to make self-publishing easier and help other aspiring authors bring their book ideas to life.
