Making It Small

Miniaturist, self builder and serial creative Angie, never did things

quite the way anyone thought she should. This is the story of how

challenging and also how rewarding life can be if you take an

unconventional path and stick with it in spite of all indications that

disaster is looming.

Angie and her ‘Computer Geek’ husband Frank’s exploits in England

and Andalucía are unusual, maddening, cringe-worthy and sometimes

very funny indeed. There are moments of triumph and moments of

despair. And almost always a blind faith and a can do attitude.

Woven through the whole story is her absolute passion for thinking

up new creative ideas, sharing them and inspiring other people.

This rags to rags autobiography is both a cautionary and joyful tale

for anyone thinking of living a non-traditional creative life, or anyone

contemplating making the big leap to another country in the belief

that it will all work out.
