BOOK NEWS!!! My next picture book is a tribute to beloved children's author Robert Munsch! It's being illustrated by the incredible Michael Martchenko, known for creating so many of Munsch's most memorable characters. Huge thanks to everyone at Annick Press, the Munsch family and my wonderful agent.

I still remember Shaun Tan's advice during his SCBWI keynote, when he advised creatives to create a safe mental space in which we could do our best work. Shaun said he tries to avoid reading reviews of his work, for example. For me, this includes limiting when/how I use social media. How about you?

Comic with four panels under the heading "You May Be Luckier Than You Think." Top left: Person says, "What if no one wants to publish my book? I envy published writers & illustrators. They have it made." Top right: Person says, "What if my book gets bad reviews or people don’t buy it? I envy bestselling authors & illustrators. They have it made." Bottom left: Person says, "What if my second book doesn’t sell as well as my first? I envy established authors & illustrators. They have it made." Bottom right: Person says, "What if people get tired of my books? Publishers want new talent. I envy hopeful newbie writers & illustrators. They have it made."
