Does writing picture books make me see the world differently? Are these three deer looking at me and waiting for me to come with them because I am a woodland fairy? Nope still thinking about life the same way. 🎊🎊 Cheers to all of us mystic, fairy tale magic making writers. The world needs us.

Up for 5 am writing group! Not procrastinating working on my stuff at all! Saw this fun tree on a day trip with the family! I would have tried to replicate this as a kid! #christmas #writinglife

Practiced drawing a squirrel for a children’s story I wrote my friend for her birthday about our friendship! We are squirrels in the story! Took a few tries but I got it and added a balloon! How to draw a squirrel standing up video by Harriet Muller. Link in comments. #kidlit #picturebooks
