This holiday season I’ve been haunted by the ghosts of picture books yet to come. 2021 has been a long, difficult year for everyone. I’ve had ups and downs both personally and professionally but the one thing I’ve really neglected are the picture books ideas that have been running around my brain for years. In the past I’d be working on the early stages of a new book while finishing up another one, getting it ready to be sent to my publisher. My 2 new books came out in November and I have nothing currently in the pipeline.

Consider buying “P is for Puffin”. I am donating all my author royalties to @wildnetorg to help protect endangered species worldwide. All of the money they collect goes directly to conservationists working to protect different species, from animals everyone knows, such as elephants, to lesser known ones such as pangolins and okapis. You can also make larger donations directly to them. #givingtuesday #animals #kidlit #kidlitart #authorsofinstagram #bookstagram

This Saturday I’ll be launching my new books at @brandywinezoo at 1pm. I’ll be reading, drawing and we might be joined by one of their animal ambassadors! If you or your friends are in and around Wilmington, DE come on out! #bookstagram #booklaunch #kidlit #kidlitart #animals #aliens #picturebooks #bookevent #authorsofinstagram #illustrator @wildnetorg @schifferkids

I'm adding motion graphics to videos of my books. Check out this sample, the videos will enhance my virtual school visits & will also be available to schools & libraries on their own. Follow me to see when they launch and please #share #kidlit #kidlitart #bookstagram #authorvisit

Beautiful sky just now, had to stop and take this picture.

On this rainy day the cats have all picked their napping spots. #catsofinstagram #cats #bookstagram #authorsofinstagram
