Ok palate cleanse time. In case you missed it, here's my most popular post ever
4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day.
On popular request, I shall now recreate the livetweet thread from that day
So gather around children, for this is the tale of The Rice Truck Saga

Friday #kidlit check-in time. I cranked through my drawing book project, did some daily drawing, and spent a little time writing. That being said, I've got a case of the grumps. Good thing it's Friday! 🫠 How did all of you fare?

Monday #KidLit check-in time. I need to hustle on my drawing book this week, but make time for my sketchbook and writing. Somewhere in there I need to plan a holiday card... How about you?

Friday #kidlit check-in: I did all of the below, minus story ideas. But I also had a really great in-person critique group meeting. How was your week?
Oof. Monday #kidlit update... This week I'll be working on a drawing book project and getting ready for an event on Saturday (and teaching a new workshop). Also, making time for daily drawing and story ideas - got it done before this post. How about you?
