Sending off queries is both a huge relief and absolutely terrifying.

Hoping for some query magic for this vengeful sprite.

Breaking the Fourth Wall For an Introduction

After trying the whole blog post and newsletter thing through my website, I'm testing out Substack. Honestly, my only subscriber through my website was my mom. 😅

Hoping this works better 🤞

Hi Sharina. Did you stay on track and finish all of it?! Life and ADHD has made it a challenge for me 😬

A close-up illustrated pink pig against a light blue background. The pig has 2 black spots on his back side and is looking up left and smiling.

Doesn't Chancho just look portentous? He's clearly trying to impress you, so you'll subscribe and like his 10-page comic adventure.

Cover image features a hand-lettered title, CHANCHO THE PORTENTOUS, rising like steam from a freshly baked tray of cookies on top of a stove. There are more cookies being baked in the oven which is centered on the page between some light cabinets with dark countertop. On the wood floor in front of the oven sits a pink pig with black spots on it's back end (1 large and 1 small). The pig, Chancho, is smelling the fresh cookies. At the bottom right it says "WRITTEN BY JOHNELL DEWITT" and "ILLUSTRATED BY NIKKI HARWOOD"

Did I mention that I'm obsessed with this pig from this modern Don Quixote story featuring a video game obsessed kid.

Cast gifts for Pistols for Two (based on Georgette Heyer's short stories and adapted by Christina Calvert).

I had almost as much fun making these as I did taking on 4.5 characters in the show!

FORGET-ME-NOT by Nicole Harwood When tween witch Delilah’s ADHD quirks provoke her best – and only – friend into ending their lifelong friendship, she enacts a desperate magic potion plan that accidentally destroys a vengeful sprite’s home. As if things couldn’t be worse, sunrise brings the first day of middle school and she has to face it alone except for the cursed sprite wreaking havoc. Middle Grade Graphic Novel Coming of Age Magical Realism Illustrated blue forget-me-not flowers are strategically placed between the title and byline as well as the words across the footer. To the right is the illustrated main character, Delilah. She has brown hair with pink tips, fair complexion, wearing a purple shirt and dark teal pants. She stands in front of a book mockup with the title, FORGET-ME-NOT in yellow above a black cauldron with a pink brew. There are magical swirls and forget-me-not flowers flowing out of the cauldron like steam and they flow around the title. Three large forget-me-not flowers frame the bottom of the cauldron.

FORGET-ME-NOT is a #MiddleGrade #GraphicNovel ready to find representation!

A tween witch with ADHD plus a cursed, vengeful sprite means magical hijinks on this middle school friendship rollercoaster.
