Same author, different illustrators. Many will recognize the book on the right. Good Night Moon, written by Margaret Wise Brown. But did you know she also wrote the book on the left? And I illustrated it! Only $7.99! On Christmas Day is available at www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/marga....

I just realized I put the incorrect hashtag for the November #kidlitartpostcard day! Trying this again even if it’s late.

Hello there, little one. I love it when I start to see a character beginning to develop and take shape. It’s like magic. 💫

Inspired by a beautiful Claude Monet painting, a little artist decides to create her own masterpiece, but her puppy has other ideas.

Just under 8 months until CLAUDE unveils his masterpiece!

One of my favorite things in creating art is light. ✨Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. #positivitypost #kidlitart

I'm holding onto the hope that the perfect editor will fall in love with this book. It’s a story about kindness, a message I feel our world needs now more than ever, for readers of all ages.
The manuscript is officially out on submission with my incredible agent, @kterrette!

As we bid farewell to these last hot summer days, I remember childhood, when I used to sing into the fan and hear a warbly alien voice sing back. Did you ever do that? Daily dose of #positivity, including #peace, #hope, #love, or #wonder to bring smiles to your faces. Feel free to share the love.

Telling my overly-sensitive over-thinking self that every new stressful challenge (like taking care of a dog after surgery in a recovery cone-of-shame who drools when anxious so he gets a hot spot on top of the other issue) is like bringing home a new baby. It will get easier with time.
