Hi,
I'm Charlotte,
poet, illustrator and award-winning designer.
I weave words with pictures and love poetry because it holds a lot in a small space of words. When I don't have time or the band-with to read much a poem is my quick fix. I write poetry like other people write diaries.
My poetry book, 'after-words' launched at the iconic Notting Hill Bookshop (yes the one from that film) where it is a bestseller.

“you are born you
And the world enters.
Gradually;
A little less you,
A little more them.
Until.
You are old enough to know
You were enough before.”
Enough
