My second dream last night was solving my first dream, then the alarm woke me. Now I have a two-dream problem.

Anyone else?

Anyone else remember when headlines were representative of the story that followed?

I miss those headlines.

Anyone else remember when every item on the Modcloth site had a funny, punny name?

I miss that Modcloth.

Song Sung Blue is a emotional roller coaster ride worth taking!
Saw a preview last night and still feel hopeful.

Directed by Craig Brewer not Richard Linklater.

Agree 💯!

(Also, can't believe I'm using that emoji. The missing % drives me nuts!)

Cover of children's book with a smiling bear and an owl with a book in bed under teal covers. Another bear extends above the cover looking down while a third looks up yawning. Words say coming Nov 11. Little Brown Young Readers logo.

Hi. If I write a game a week, a blog a day, a pixelart image a day, music each week, as well as continuing to build a programming language.. Then is it ok to quickly generate a youtube thumbnail to save myself an hour of extra drawing at the end of a long day of doing the crappy "upload" stuff?

If the quality of your work doesn’t matter—just the speed at which you can produce it—then you’re not making art. You’re making content.

@picturebooksummit.bsky.social 2025 was fabulous! Left me inspired and tired (in a good way). Thanks to the team for putting together an amazing conference!

FRAUD ALERT: I have nothing to do with these phony books using my name on the cover. I have not written a memoir or partnered/inspired any cookbooks!
Attempts to get Amazon to take these down have gone nowhere.

Sometimes it's great to read like a reader! A great place to do it, Dad Suggests Books in Fayetteville, AR.

Well, actually, I had a golden retriever that ate her puppies.
That aside, I agree cooperation is paramount.

Congratulations!!!

Weighing in on the egg conversation, do old eggs really peel more easily or was that just something my grandmother said?

You're welcome!

Hope it works out!
