A Book about a Song & a Tattoo

When I grew up tattoo’s were not something that people aspired to in fact they were actively discouraged and I would not have been able to train as a nurse as the medical that you had to undergo included checking for them. Tattoo parlours were largely unregulated and in dodgy locations unlike today where the equipment is very sophisticated & more hygienic & the premises are on the high street. It took a while to overcome the ingrained views but I was inspired by a song that was written for me to get my first tattoo & wrote a short e-book about it. The link below will enable anyone looking at this page to read it if they wish. I also experimented with using a digital pen for the first time to draw some of the illustrations too.

This book is very short & was based around children’s ‘my first’ in construction. A little ‘tongue in cheek’ perhaps but was meant as a bit of fun & to enable me to test out some tech.
