What ages are your books for?

blanklit books are suitable for kids aged 0-100. Kids over the age of 100 are too old, so don’t bother.

The medical ones are designed to interpret confusing medical jargon, but are kept concise so as not to overwhelm youngsters. They include further reading (a glossary and tips for parents/carers and healthcare workers), which older kids may find helpful. The books that aren’t medically-inclined do not necessarily have all those features, because that would be pointless.

Are blanklit books medically accurate?

I have never seen anyone with bricks for hands in real life, but anything is possible.

Where are your books printed?

blanklit books are printed locally in Melbourne, Australia, from the Sustainable Printing Co, using 100% recycled paper and environmentally friendly inks and practices. Except the digital downloads. They are not printed anywhere.

Do you visit schools, hospitals, etc.?

Sometimes when I am unwell I visit hospitals. If you are confused, just send me a message.

I want to use digital versions of the I Can Do Hard Things series in a hospital/clinic setting. How can I do this?

I am glad you asked. You’ll need a distribution license. Send me an email for a quote! With a distribution license, you would be free to put up posters with a QR code for your patients, or email the book to those coming in for appointments, or give it to them some other way. It’s pretty easy and then thousands of kids can benefit from it! Pricing is variable depending on size of the service (e.g. to use across multiple areas of a hospital compared to a small clinic would be quite different).

How many books are in the I Can Do Hard Things series?

Right now, just one. “Series” is a bit of an overstatement. But one day, I hope to have as many as 2 books in the series.

What is the best way to stay up to date on new releases?

My newsletter, my instagram, or talking to me personally. I am open to new friends.
