Hi there! My October #KidLitArtPostcard celebrates the MLB postseason* and ghost story season.

I'm an #unagented author-illustrator seeking representation. I ❤️ colorful textural art, funny stories for kids, and all things baseball. You can see more 🎨 at elizabeth-metz.com.

*but RIP my Reds 😥

Illustration postcard: In the top panel, a dark sky featuring a shadowed moon in the shape of a baseball. In the lower, larger panel a shimmery ghost wearing a red baseball cap and a red jersey (jersey bears the name Runner and the number 1, hat bears a wishbone-G) floats desperately toward second base.

Overlaid text says "Author + illustrator Elizabeth Metz. www.elizabeth-metz.com."

Illustration. A mom and a dad jump in horror as they realize their child has caught them sneaking Halloween candy. A very judgemental dog watches the grown-ups.
