Introduction Welcome to my blog! I'm Belinda O'Keefe (a.k.a. Bee) and I love writing for children, and I want to share all that inspires me to put words on a page. I have two Russian Blue cats - Enzo, who thinks he's a dog, and Portia, who is addicted to nerf bullets and guitar picks. Yes, she actually eats them! I love gardening, and my vegetable garden (as well as my two boys) inspired my first book, The Day the Plants Fought Back, coming out 1st June 2019. I love finding all sorts of strange shaped veges - some of which I'll post for you to see. I have a middle grade novel, Trouble With a Capital T, available on Amazon, and a couple of others in the pipeline. Watch this space!
