More hugs, more books, more cats… obviously.
If 2025 was the year Tiny Whispers was born, then 2026 is the year she gets a little bolder, a little braver, and a lot more… well, busy.
I’ve got so many plans bubbling away that my brain feels like a cauldron of ideas (with the occasional biscuit dunked in for good measure). So I thought I’d share a little behind-the-scenes peek at what’s coming next for Tiny Whispers.
Spoiler: it involves therapy cats, more snail mail, and yes… another Christmas gift box. 🎁
Tiny Hug Club – Growing Our Little Hug Family 💌
One of the biggest and most unexpected joys of the last year has been Tiny Hug Club.
What started as a one-off Christmas snail mail experiment turned into a fully fledged monthly hug-in-an-envelope. The response to that very first free Christmas letter honestly floored me – so many of you said it arrived on a hard day, made you feel seen, or gave you a little moment of calm. That’s exactly what I hoped it would do.
So this year, I’ll be:
-
Expanding Tiny Hug Club with new themes
-
Leaning more into cosy comfort, gentle encouragement and mental health kindness
-
Bringing you more of Doodle the therapy cat, who seems to be stealing hearts wherever he appears 🐾
My dream is for Tiny Hug Club to feel like that friend who pops a note through your door just when you need it most. One envelope at a time.
More Books, More Characters, More Tiny Worlds 📚
If you know me by now, you’ll know my brain never really sits still. Once Honey Bear, Fox & Prickle, Sugar Plum and Marmalade Mouse arrived, it was only a matter of time before more little characters wanted to move in.
My next adventure?
A brand new book all about Doodle and Stitch – my therapy cats. 🐱🐱
This book will be based on comfort, calm, and that feeling of having a soft little friend nearby when life feels a bit too loud. I want it to be:
-
Gentle
-
Reassuring
-
Cosy (think blankets, books, biscuits and safe spaces)
It’s still in the sketchbook stage, but I can already feel how special it’s going to be.
Alongside that, I’m planning to publish more Tiny Whispers volumes and explore new themes and worlds – still soft, still cute, still full of that soothing, scribbly magic that started all of this.
Christmas 2.0 – Lessons Learned & More Magic 🎄
Let’s talk Christmas.
Last Christmas was… intense. In the best way.
The Christmas Gift Box was a huge hit (thank you!!), but it also taught me a LOT:
-
You really love a wrapped-up surprise under the tree
-
I need more stock next time (and more tape… and more snacks…)
-
And I actually love putting together these special boxes
So this year, I’ll be doing another Christmas Gift Box – again filled with exclusive goodies, a new book, prints, treats and cosy extras. Now that I’ve survived round one, I feel braver and better prepared for round two!
I’m also thinking about:
-
Another Colouring Advent Calendar
-
Maybe a Christmas Tiny Hug special
-
And a few extra seasonal bits for those of you who like to celebrate slowly and gently
Your Turn – What Would You Love to See? 💛
Tiny Whispers isn’t just my little world anymore – it’s ours.
So I’d really love to know:
-
What would you like to see more of in 2026?
-
More books? More animals? More fairytale worlds?
-
More snail mail? More digital downloads?
-
A mental health–themed colouring book?
If you have ideas, wishes, suggestions or wild dreams for Tiny Whispers, I’d honestly love to hear them.
👉 Just pop me a message, reply to one of my emails, or send me a DM and let me know your thoughts.
I read everything (usually with a cup of tea in one hand and a cat trying to sit on the keyboard).
One Last Thing…
If you’ve been here from the very beginning, joined partway through, or only just stumbled across a tiny bear or mouse on your feed recently – thank you.
Your support, your orders, your messages, your colouring pages and your kind words are the reason Tiny Whispers is still growing, still dreaming, and still daring to plan big things for 2026.
Here’s to more hugs, more pages, more little worlds…
and all the tiny whispers of magic still to come. 💫
Love,
