As Writer/illustrator: 
Annette’s favourite kind of books are comic and illustrated books. Annette has written and illustrated many stories of her own since young.

Her first book, Joel’s Secret (2008) was completed when she was 16 years old. It is unpublished but she has a single copy at home which she treasures very dearly.

www.ifonlywefartflowers.com was birthed during Annette's time in film school, as a way to continue illustrating, albeit in quick doodles, in a bid to tell stories that see the light of day a lot sooner than in a full illustrated book. This blog is a compilation of silly stories and musings she thought would be fun to document.
