I had a lovely time interviewing @brandiauyemura.bsky.social kidlit author of I Am A Bon Dancer, available on Mar 17, 2026. She is also a counselor and shared her publishing journey and how creators can manage their work-life balance and stress.

Thanks, Brandi!

Excited about the Feb.24 launch of I'M BUSY, written by @michaelianblack.bsky.social
& illustrated by yours truly (Simon & Schuster BFYR), part of our I'M series about kids' emotions. Available for pre-order!

Thanks Kirkus for nice review: www.simonandschuster.com/books/Im-Bus... #KidLit #ImBusy
Illustrated book cover reading “I’M BUSY” in large red letters. A pink flamingo stands on the letter B, a small potato sits above the letter M, and a girl with pigtails struggles to carry a tall stack of papers and notebooks as loose pages scatter around her.

I had a lovely chat with @rachelrcreates.bsky.social children's book author and illustrator, about her creative journey. I'm a fan of Rachel's work as I've found myself LOL at her storytelling. Here's a picture of us in conversation. T-shirt art credits go to Rachel's daughter. :)
