Rupo

That’s me. Rupo. Ruth Pocock. Ruth, Ruthie, Roo. All me. Rupo Write & Design encompasses all of my work – from the different writing projects I do such as the very awesome children’s book Sixteen Sizes Smaller, to the design stuff, including the new South West Coast Path customisable poster, and the clothing line Sisters of the Sea. I love that I can combine such a variety of work under one umbrella and am delighted it will all now be on one website.

A little bit about me

Home is beautiful Cornwall in the South West of England with my husband, two daughters and lunatic Labrador.

As in work, my off time is also a mix of different things. I love surfing, swimming, skating and adventuring outdoors, but I also like reading, puzzles and crafty things.

If a thing is worth doing, it’s worth doing well

That’s a mantra I live by. I give myself wholeheartedly to every project I enter into, whether at work or at home. Because nothing good comes without effort.

Get your child reading

I am passionate about helping children discover reading, it really is such a wonderful thing to have in your life. There is little more heart-bulging than hearing that my book has engrossed a child, especially when they are seen as a ‘reluctant reader’.

Adventure always

Don’t let life get in the way of adventure. Try new things. Get out of your comfort zone occasionally. Remember that the things that scare you at first will often be your greatest successes.
