I'm not sure if this one counts as a Halloween book (although it has a Halloween part) but it's also super charming. :) #kidlitchat

The nicest thing about the book event at Honey Locust Farms last weekend is that if any conversation got too awkward, I could Homer Simpson myself into the foliage.

Hey there! I'm a graphic novelist working on a MG series called Kindred Dragons. In days of yore, I've also been an illustrator, character designer & animator. Here's some art from my book...

My new phone has the fanciest zoom! No more "what's that tiny smudge in the distance" photos for me. :)

Delighted to be on the Middle Grade Graphic panel at the School Library Journal's Day of Dialogue, a free virtual event this May 22nd! I really enjoyed reading the other panelists' books. Such a fun selection! #SLJDOD

Happy #mermay2025! Delighted that I found a few minutes to draw/paint/digitally-conjure a merm this year. 💚

I often miss Ontario, where I grew up, but one cool thing about Texas is that fossils are EVERYWHERE. My son found this while walking home from the bus. Tooth? Claw? Tiny unicorn horn?

The Kindred Dragons ARCs arrived!!! Excuse me as I run outside and press them into the hands of strangers, while whispering, "It's happening!"

Can't wait for everyone to meet Alice and Brim on October 14th! 💚
