My name is Emma Hibbs, and I’m a fantasy author and artist from North West England. I'm also what you'd probably get if Wednesday Addams, Alice in Wonderland and Tinkerbell were thrown together. I’m always looking for fun new ways to express my creativity and individuality. I’m also an avid folklorist, and I love encouraging others to be themselves and let their imaginations soar. On this channel you’ll find writing tips, art timelapses, info on myths and legends, and my thoughts on topics from the creative world, as well as the occasional tag and vlog. If you have any questions for me about anything (writing-related or otherwise), please send them my way and I’ll include them in future Q&A videos! Happy browsing, beloved Batties! ______________________________________________ CREDITS Music: Kevin MacLeod Created and presented by Emma Hibbs. ______________________________________________ “So on the Writing Desk, now cast your eyes.
