Coming in 2023!

It's a brand new babyyyy-- book! Actually, two books!

I'm not allowed to say much about them yet. 

But when I can, I'll say it here!

-----

In the meantime, I can say this:

It's two books. 

Picture books!

For kids.

Sort of a twin project.

-----

I'm working on the art deadlines right now, as we speak.

I am SUPER excited to see these projects come together. 

-----

And... crossing fingers... knock on wood...

It looks like they'll be published in two different languages, including one that I don't have any other books published in yet.

-----

Let's see... 

Is there anything more I can say? 

It's my art, but not my writing.

The best part: 

A dear friend wrote the text. 

Look for an official announcement soon. :)
