Wanna see something ~amazing~?!
This is the cover of KAIJU GAGA, beautifully illustrated by @normgrock.bsky.social! 🤩
I grew up reading @chooseadventure.bsky.social, so it's thrilling to see my name on a book with that iconic red logo. I loved writing it and I hope kids (and you!) love reading it.

Great conversation. Please watch. I had no idea that the budget bill that was going through Congress has a clause in it that says AI cannot be regulated by the government for the next 10 years. How does that help anyone?

Art is made by people: a result of decades of life experience, training, mistakes, tough days and long nights – all culminating in the act of creation.
