Joining @scbwi.bsky.social monthly prompt challenge has officially become part of my routine, and for January, the prompt is “dream.”

For this one, I really wanted to explore color and play with strong contrasts.

Being a writer is the most embarrassing thing in the world! I write down the entire contents of my soul for validation! And then some editor will just be like no thanks!

In a market, a mother cat and child cat buy juice from a fruit seller who is also a cat. A deli cat is slicing pepperoni next to them.

Are there any current clients of BookEnds Literary that would like to take over this list from me?

(My agent started her own agency so I'm with her now)

From screen to paper. Starting my year with a cute book worm illustration for business cards for the #SCBWI conference. It can be folded into a little desk buddy. 🍎🪱 This is my 1st #kidlitilloweek piece, but also working on a 2nd using the Jan prompts.

A watercolour completed at a lovely venue near Saffron Walden in June 2024. I had been fortunate to paint there several times and have always been drawn to the lily pond. I haven't done anything else to it since and I think it should be left in the moment.
