Also keep your portfolios lookin good so when someone does recommend you, they’ve got some good stuff to look at.

It’s important to keep an eye on what your peers are doing. Something I LOVE is being able to recommend fellow creatives for projects. I love matching people up with projects I think are perfect for their interests and hopefully getting them some more work!
We have to build each other up! 🥰

I had a hysterectomy and I’m still being asked by family if I’ve thought about adopting.

I'll be out of town at the end of October. Now is the best time to grab my oracle deck, THE WOLVES WITHIN, before Halloween! I'll be pausing my site in a couple of weeks. <3

I read Morgana Pendragon #1 by @mcholly1.bsky.social Alden Kaye @wksahadewa.bsky.social Troy Peteri @davallone.bsky.social with cover by @rioburton.bsky.social 🤩🤩🤩 and loved it so much! I cannot wait for the series to continue!

A comic surrounded by two character silhouette magnets and a metal bookmark featuring a sword in the stone covered in overgrown greenery and a bird atop its hilt. The comic’s title at the top is “Morgana Pendragon” and features a red-headed Morgana in a medieval tunic and propping up a sword.
