Hi friends!
To mark 10 years working as a published children’s author and illustrator, I’ve created 'Words and Pictures', an e-book amassing all the things I’ve learned, think about, and continue trying to be better at when it comes to making books!
Available now! tinyurl.com/Words-and-Pi... ✨✨✨
Today marks 10 years since my first book ‘To the Sea’ was published, and in many ways my start in children’s publishing! 🥳✨ 10 YEARS!!
I am so unbelievably grateful to work in this industry, and get to tell my stories. Thanks to any of you out there who may have read one of my books 🙌 ❤️
Ahhh! Gosh thank you Margaret! ☺️ You are too sweet!

I'm excited to say that this June will mark my 10th year working as a published author! 10!!! Madness. 😵💫
I decided to put together a book talking about 100 things I've learned in 10 years, working on 25 books. I'm working to have it done by this June, and I hope it will be helpful to others! 📚
That's it for me!
Thanks to those who sent in their wonderful pups!
🙌🐶
What a good boy! 😊
What a good boy!
What a good boy Lewis is! 😊
He actually looks like a small version of the dog I'm drawing for my next book!
Aww Pippi is adorable!
She’s a tricky one to get right!
Teddy is a grade A pooch!
Thanks for sending over the pup pics! ☺️
I did try one more at a different view too 🐶
Ok here is a Sophie!
I really wanted to get that lil overbite in there 😊
Ahhh so cute!
Ahh Sophie! So adorable! That overbite!
Hey!
I'm currently needing some dog drawing practice for my next book. Send me over a photo of your pooch and I may give try sketching em! 🐶 🐶🐶
It does! And you should! It doesn't pay out as much as PLR, but it still can be an extra $150-200 👍
Ah! Thanks for the reminder Charlene! I have to do the same.
