Toby

I just got a public death threat from a few folks who noticed I am doing a library event to talk about my career and my books. They called me all the familiar names, then “I won’t be sad if someone shoots her in the face.” And a woman’s reply, “Right between the eyes.”

I am a children’s author.

I am quite the enjoyer of sewing

Rejection is Protection every single time. Quote: "May the bridges we burn light our way."

Let them be mad.
Let them judge you.
Let them misunderstand you.
Let them gossip about you.
Let them ignore you.
Let them be right.
Let them doubt you.
Let them hate you.
Let them run your name in the ground.
Let them make you out to be the villain.

But never let them make you question your worth.

A dusty green paint swatch with a painting of a cute highland cow on it. The cow is laying down amongst holly sprigs and snow flurries, wearing a red scarf & beanie, with its tongue sticking out to catch snowflakes. The paintings is sitting on an open sketchbook spread of other cow sketches.

It’s Diabetes Awareness month! I was just diagnosed this year as a type 1 diabetic after almost dying from complications related to diabetic ketoacidosis, so my goal is to make more people aware of the differences between type 1 and type 2 diabetes!
