I got a TikTok review of my Panic Pages Coloring Books that made me cry happy tears. This is why I made these books, to put the power of calm in the hands of people who need it, when they need it.

My shop is panicpages.myshopify.com

The books are for neurodivergents, but anyone can use them!

Sharing a Message from Matthew A. Cherry, creator of “Hair Love”
I recently received a message from Matthew A. Cherry, director, filmmaker, producer whose works include the precious animated franchise Hair Love. Cherry is trying to being another animated project to the screen and he needs your help. Here is his message. Hey Jo, I wanted to personally share my new Kickstarter campaign for my latest project, a 2D animated short film and proof of concept for a future feature film called Time Signature: Time Signature is a modern Black musical about a teen prodigy named Melody, whose mother, Harmony, is not as supportive of her musical ambitions as Melody wishes she was.

Panic Pages: Discounts and Feedback from Future Authors
This morning I colored the Panic Pages with a school full of eager, creative kids This morning, I attended a career fair at the Lotus School for Excellence in Aurora. I was the “writer” career, so my goal was to talk to kids about what real writers do. I ended up settling on book publishing—self-publishing vs. traditional publishing. To keep the kids entertained, I also have a table full of coloring pages from my Panic Pages for Neurodivergent Kids book, crayons and markers. After the event, the table looked like a battleground after war.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 43 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

I love this clip. For so many of us, Cher is more than an icon. Even she says that 40 was a change year.

So many of millennial women can agree.

This clip also makes me feel better about my "second act" which started in my 40s
