Hi! How are you?
If you are an Illustrator, an author's, a publisher or an agent, you probably are or are looking at the Bologna Children’s Book Fair. There are left two days and this edition is a big one as always.
So now, why this title?
Well, yesterday April 1st, I would have been at the fair, I spent almost a week on getting ready for the fair. But at least, I didn’t, I wrote about this here, so please get on my Substack (it’s free), to read about the why I couldn’t go.
And I wan’t to add a brief though about it, here too: I’ve been doing things alone all my life, now I’m tired about this fact, 50 years are weighing on me, and I’d like to finally share the good things with someone.
On the other side, I’m working to pursue my dreams. As my friend Rekha Salin told me yesterday, there will be other occasion for me to go at the fair or maybe something bigger is in preparation for us.
here is my beautiful sweater I’m wearing right now, I have a shopper too!
my personal shopper!
I spent the month of March on working on my stickers. As I said on the last post, I have designed some sheets in the past, and this year I would love to make more of them. Also I’ve got a character that stumbled on my sketchbook and I felt in love with it. I called this cute character Fragolin@ and I’ve designed and want to make more stickers about his activities.

I’ve also made some other sheets about Tea Time, you probably saw the post card on my Instagram as well.
Well, that’s all for now, I am a bit tired in this time of the year, so on April I hope to have a slow down month to recharge my energy. But silently work on some new staff on the backstage.
I hope you’re doing well and enjoying your Spring.
So, till next time, xoxo, G. aka Jdeebella at Soulfulcrane the creative nest in Italy
