Naomi Rose, award-winning author and illustrator, continues her description of how her book, Tibetan Tales For Little Buddhas, came to be. Having secured a foreword from His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Naomi continued a process she’d been for many years - finding the right publisher. It took time and effort, but feeling more confident with her new foreword, Naomi persisted until she finally found a publisher who was excited to publish her book felt she had the right company for the book. But there was another challenge awaiting her - that of overcoming a lifelong dread of public speaking in order to bring the book to the attention of the public, and to its natural audience - children. Drawing on her experience of the last ten years, Naomi recognised that another step on her path of personal growth was required. She studied with a storyteller, she learnt about performance, and she became expert at how to communicate the subtle variations in tone of a story’s natural flow. Without intending to, Naomi had launched a whole new phase of her career - that of going into schools, and sharing some of the wisdom she has acquired during her own life studies. She talked to children about the Tibetan ways of peace and harmony, chanted with the children, and created sacred art such as mandalas and prayer flags. In this process, she discovered how powerful the effect of Tibetan Tales For Little Buddhas was on adults as well as children. This process was a huge training ground for the next phase of Naomi’s life - in which other books followed. Just a thought: Would you like to link to my Youtube where I actually do storytelling in costume of one of the stories? Up to you.
