My Florida snowman! He was about 10” tall before my dog ate him.

Snow face! It is snowing in Florida today!

Figured out a way to squeeze a few more plants into my office!

Congratulations to my very talented award winning CP @steenaherndez for her lovely story!! And to the talented award winning illustrator Melissa Castillo for her beautiful art! Happy dancing for you both!#kidlit #picturebooks

A bit of beauty I found one day…

I don’t draw very often these days because I am writing in all my free time, but in 2020 I made the extreme effort to participate in Inktober and drew this for the word prompt “armor”. I had a blast and now use this picture on my business cards. #kidlit #picturebooks

Looking forward to some Storystorm fun in 2025! Thank you @taralazar ! #storystorm #kidlit #picturebooks

Today I treated myself to a celebratory antique typewriter! #kidlit #picturebooks

Signing something exciting today! #picturebooks #kidlit

My latest portrait! I posed for the little artist today and love her portrayal of my hair. Yes hair, not a storm cloud above my head… 😂 #kidlit

I am sad to report the accidental squashing of this creature under my back door mat. By his hand gesture it appears his last communication was the Vulcan greeting "live long and prosper". #kidlit

Tonight my granddaughter got very excited and told me I looked just like the lady on the Candyland board game. I’m still laughing… #kidlit
