Working on my first children’s book I am both writing and illustrating. The ideas are all there I just need to organize them in a coherent manner that’s not terrible. I contacted about 5 publishers so far, so I figure I’ll just keep at it, trying to space them out a bit so I can improve my pitch and not burn myself out too hard. All I have to do is keep at it and don’t give up which makes for another great title for another children’s book idea. The creation part: the writing, drawing and colouring come super easy fun though!!
Also, I’m going to be in the Art Gallery Of Hamilton Show and Sale this year. Somewhere in a board room downtown they are humming and hawing over which they will select this year.
Will they pick the giant snake to show for the Chinese zodiac year of the green snake 2025? It only occurs every 60 years!

Or will they lean into the Made In Canada theme with The Big Goose?!!

Or do we want something to mark the year we’ve had with the total solar eclipse of maximum totality?!


Or maybe they prefer the latest in Ugly Animals In Cute Outfits??!
Wish I could sit in on that meeting.
