So here’s some actually nice news...
I’m happy to announce that I am now represented by Stephen Barr at Writers House!
Always have had a difficult time celebrating accomplishments...
But I wanted to use it to spread some gratitude for my Lit journey with a Thankful thread...
Muchísimas gracias to my Abuelita, and my father for their sacrifices so I could be part of the first generation to not do migrant farmwork.
I get to follow my heart, and tell stories with Art.
A privilege that I will never take lightly...
even when I draw toot jokes wheee
A big Thanks to @kenardpak for his friendship, and guidance. I always reflect on him telling me that there is a seat for both of us equally at the Illustration table.
Don't compare, just welcome, and cheer on other artists.
Also he recommended @yikeslouise to me!
Thanks to @DiandraMae and #kidlitart community!
She introduced me to the awesome @marshariti who invited me to join @Girllustrators which led to @SCBWIAustin and @TheWritingBarn
The Austin KidLit Community is so supportive, and I'm a better storyteller from being part of it.
Cảm ơn to #1 Fan, Ultimate Sourdough Warrior, and parenting adventure partner @phimonkey
He even took the photo above!
Only took 686 shots, a plastic spider, awkward dance moves, but he finally got a good one...
So patient, supportive, and makes me coffee. ❤️
If I didn’t name you, I’m still sending you a TON of gratitude!
Creating stories is a long journey.
Be kind to all the people along the way, and offer a helping hand afterwards.
Anyway, Thanks for reading!
(Now I will go back to hiding under my desk, and painting.)
