Picture Book Dummies

Thank you for looking!

These dummies are original stories that I’ve both written and illustrated. Understanding the craft of writing picture books has informed and enhanced my visual storytelling. I began taking writing classes at Storyteller Academy in 2020 and have continued my growth through a one-on-one mentorship with a published author/illustrator and multiple critique groups.
