I've never been a big social media poster, and I haven't posted on here for a while as I waited to see what happened with it, but if anyone is still here, I'm officially heading over to be active on Bluesky. Hope to see you there.

Heather's such a talented illustrator and author, and it makes me so happy to see her growing success!
I am an illustrator AND an author! 🥹 what a dream come true- and I am working with the most amazing team at @HarperCollinsCh. So grateful to them and to my wonderful agent Deborah @EastWestLit

I was late to the game with my color #artvsartist2023 this morning, so here's a bonus: a black and white version of #artvsartist!

I'm a little late to the party, but I see a few others are arriving late with me. And... an actual pic of me? This feels weird. #artvsartist #artvsartist2023

It's always a satisfying experience when a for-fun illustration leads to a new story idea. I'm looking forward to fleshing this one out in writing. #amquerying #writersoftwitter #illustrator

I am so excited to share the cover art for the next book I illustrated, written by my friend and very talented book creator @KWindness! This project is so close to both our hearts, because of course we love many books 😍 it is available for preorder now! @EastWestLit

I made the illustrations for a kidlit choose-your-path adventure for the Cotsen Children's Library, a unit of the Princeton Library. I've posted 16 of the pics, but I need to finish it off and finally post the last 4! And so here are the last of them. I hope you enjoyed them!

It’s an extremely difficult time to be a querying writer or a writer on sub. You aren’t imagining it. #WritingCommunity
