Christian Watson will hold a book signing for his work 'How Lucky Am I' at Waterstones Glasgow Fort. The book features the character Mr Skelly and reflects on finding meaning in life through everyday experiences. Entry includes a copy of the book.
"How lucky am I, to have lost what I wanted, to find what I deserved" In 2023, while residing in Tasmania with his wife Elle-May and their two children, Christian sketched the first likeness of Mr Skelly, a small figure that, to his surprise, came to hold meaning for millions. Christian writes as he works: with plain earnestness, an eye for the unseen and a belief that even the quietest life is extraordinary. About the Book Following the gentle Instagram-conquering skeleton Mr Skelly on his quest to find the meaning of life, How Lucky Am I is filled with beautiful hand-painted imagery and quiet wisdom that can be found in the appreciation of small, everyday wonders. Glasgow's Book Fair, Books at the Botanics, is held every month in the Hopkirk building at Glasgow's Botanic Gardens! This roundtable workshop is inviting participants to learn about and share their knowledge of John James Audubon, the creator of the world famous The Birds of America, on show in the College Library!
