Hello! It's been a minute. 💕

Fellow author and friend T.K. Toppin had the cover reveal of her new book today. I am honored that she commissioned me to make its cover illustration! “Technicolour Sandbox” should be out before the end of October. :-)

Dip pen in lonely, dip pen in lonely, dip and dip and dip until each sentence becomes friend, and hand stays steady on thought and words sink deep into page, and door gets further away, and story draws me in, tangled up in the where been by time you come home, cavalry of my #recovery.

I was not oblivious to the shift. The nuances of his speech. How feathery soft was my name upon his lips. How the corners of his eyes would lift at the sight of me. How he leaned in close when I spoke. This shift was like the butterfly effect—I felt a storm gathering force inside my heart.

It was mandolin night at the wine bar. Nick rolled in with a tenor sax and hip flask of rye, beelined to the stage, threw the strummer off, launched into a soulful dirge on the horn. Natural born storyteller—not a dry eye in the place.

“What’s the title?”

“Lizbeth.”
