This weekend I did my first craft fair for the year. I've been sharing a stall with author friend, C.S Clifford (Steve), at these events since last summer. Our books are so different that we are not in competition with each other, we get to share the costs and keep each other company. This time we were at the lovely Silcocks Farm, near Tenterden. It was a great day and I enjoyed meeting lots of friendly people. Silcocks Farm is a wonderful setting with some gorgeous old buildings.
At the same time, my books were selling at my rented shelf space at Lathe Barn, Burmarsh, Romney Marsh. This is a new venture for me. Crafts 4 You have opened up a shop at this popular children's farm and cafe. Rather than take commission on sales, they rent the shelf space. It's a lovely space, with some great things for sale. They also have some space for crafters to run workshops, so there's an idea for the future...
