About the author

Having been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in her early twenties, Lucy temporarily lost her sight. After she’d regained it, she made a promise to herself to draw every day. From that commitment, came her hugely popular online success. She now has an established and fast-growing social media following with 440k followers on Instagram and has appeared on Radio 4's Saturday Live and Lorraine Kelly. This is her first book.
