i always feel awkward asking to sign copies of my books at stores but it’s easier doing it with a friend. not sure how many copies are left, but i’ve stopped by brookline booksmith, carle museum, and high five books.

also one of the wordle words this week was otter… it’s a sign! 🦦

i barely post on social media but thought i should mention this happened over the summer. Always looking to expand my list of illustrators for picture books & graphic novels. And sometimes need colorists & letterers.

i’m now back at Dial Books for Young Readers at PRH, designing picture books, graphic novels, & novel interiors. If you’re curious, here’s a little post about why I continue to design books
