I need to tie bells and a long bright string to my pen because I swear every time I set it down it decides to play hide-and-seek 😭

Absolutely stunning cover! And this story is needed now more than ever. Congrats Leslie!!!
✨COVER REVEAL TIME✨
I never imagined I would be releasing the cover of a book that is very in tune with what is going on in the world right now, but here we are. I started writing CHLOE VEGA AND THE AGENTS OF MAGIC in 2018 when immigrant families were being separated at the border... (1/4).

Hey
You know that one project?
That one you've wanted to write FOREVER except it's scary as hell & maybe you don't feel good
enough or brave enough or strong enough?
Spend 15 min on it today
Keep the dream alive
Even a pot on the back burner needs to occasionally be stirred

Some old sketches from a comic project I shelved 💕 it was basically a magical girl story about confronting depression with strength, faith, and kindness but in a garden with tiny plant spirits 😆👏

This movie is so important to me, as a creative.
Whenever I'm going through an art block, I think about Ursula's advice to Kiki:
« Stop trying. Take long walks. Look at scenery. Doze off at noon. Don't even think about flying. And then, pretty soon, you'll be flying again. »
