Can you tell us a bit about yourself? And include something about you that not many people know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E132\"><strong>Ashling: <\/strong>Hey Andrew, thanks so much for having me. I\u2019m delighted to be here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E134\">I live in a leafy green suburb in Sydney with my husband, two gorgeous kiddies and two very cheeky border collies. I work as a communications specialist for a medical company during the day, and fit my creative writing in around that. Life is hectic and crazy, but I wouldn\u2019t have it any other way. I\u2019m grateful for all the gifts that have come my way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E145\">Something that many people may not know? Gosh, where do I start? I\u2019m a terrible sleeper, a very average cook, I have no sense of direction, I can\u2019t ski to save my life \u2026 the list goes on! But <em>hopefully<\/em> I\u2019m an okay writer and the books I write bring happiness to the lives of readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E145\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Butterfly Girl by Ashling Kwok and Arielle Li<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E154\"><strong>Andrew:<\/strong> I&#8217;m certain your books are bringing happiness all over the place. Let\u2019s talk about your new book, <em>Butterfly Girl<\/em>. How long did <em>Butterfly Girl<\/em> take from when the idea popped into your head until publication?<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"502\" height=\"481\" src=\"https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl-page.jpeg\" alt=\"Butterfly Girl page illustrated by Arielle Li\" class=\"wp-image-1414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl-page.jpeg 502w, https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl-page-300x287.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 502px) 100vw, 502px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p id=\"E154\"><br><br><strong>Ashling:<\/strong> About two and a half years in total. The idea for this book came to me during Covid when I saw an image of a child in lockdown standing on balcony in a dark, gloomy, colourless, empty city. I started to wonder how children without any colour in their lives made it through the day and how they managed to hold onto hope &#8211; and the idea for Butterfly Girl was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E177\">I knew what I wanted to do with the story but I had trouble with the setting and some of the logistics and practicalities of the story. After spending a year reworking it over and over again, I finally nailed it and submitted it to EK Books. From submission to publication, it took about 18 months which seems to be the standard time frame for most picture books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E177\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E187\"><strong>Andrew:<\/strong> Something that most children will have to deal with as they grow, is moving from one place to another. They may leave behind family and friends and have to start fresh. How does <em>Butterfly Girl <\/em>equip children who might be facing such a situation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E192\"><strong>Ashling: <\/strong>I hope Butterfly Girl brings children comfort by showing them that although moving away from loved ones is really tough, they can build a new life and make new friends if they hold onto hope. Often the things that terrify us turn out to be the most wonderful experiences. We just have to believe that everything will work out in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl.png\" alt=\"Butterfly Girl book page.\" class=\"wp-image-1413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl.png 480w, https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/andrewdittmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/butterfly-girl-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Butterfly Girl Illustrated by Arielle Li<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E216\"><strong>Andrew:<\/strong> <em>Butterfly Girl <\/em>was illustrated by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arielleli.com\/\">Arielle Li<\/a>.

Now here it is and Arielle has delivered beautiful, soft and emotive illustrations. Do you have a favourite spread? If so, why is it so impactful for you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"E216\"><strong>Ashling: <\/strong>Now that\u2019s a tough question! I absolutely adore every page in this book. Arielle is amazing and managed to design the book of my dreams. I\u2019ve just flicked through the book again trying to decide on my favourite spread but I can\u2019t because I love them all too much. Each illustration tells a story of its own.
