This is my journey in creating concepts, writing, illustrating, finding a literary agent, and becoming a published children's book author and illustrator for the picture book genre.

in the works...


Sorry for the delay in posting lately. I have been very busy trying to figure out a way to set up a web page with Wordpress. It is not very CDunbridge friendly. It brings about a ton of frustration and is a virtual time suck. That being said, it is going to be fabulous when it is done. I am also working on a new story about a dog. I am using the tools that I gained at the conference. Really, I am quite lucky to be able to draw and write. It really helps the writing process. I sketched out the main character for my inspiration. I have been reading a lot about breed selective legislation, pound pooches, and what their futures hold (if any). This is my driving force for my story. When inspiration hits, go with it! It has his hard.. I continue to sit on the Andy story and Super brothers Adventure Club and will work on it in the near future, but for now I am cultivating my inspiration. SCBWI southern breeze region has a great set up for critique groups. I think I may have found an online one that may work for my needs. Finding an illustrator group is too difficult. For now, I write!!!

I am still working on some Christmas illustrations for friends, but I am waiting for a photoshop program to incorporate my wacom tablet. Has anyone tried Paint.net? I am struggling with the page and how to load it without picking up an ad instead of paint. net. If you have any input or tools that are helpful, I would love to hear about it!
Until then, still aspiring!
