Post by @literaticat 💬 0  🔁 0  ❤️ 6 · I also could you some pepping up! Specifically, do you have any good stories along the lines of 'it only takes one yes?" It's looking more and more likely that my first book is goi…

An author is worried that their book might "die on submission" and wanted a pep talk. Here's why I hate that phrase, and also case studies, and also a pep talk!

It's not that it hasn't happened. It just hasn't happened YET. YET: YOU'RE ELIGIBLE, TOO.

An illustration of a boy crouching down and looking into a fish bowl at a purple fish. The boy is wearing a green striped shirt, green shorts and no shoes. His hair is brown and messy and his cheeks are pink. The background is white which gives the image a quiet feel. The art is done in brush pen, marker, color pencil and pen.

Looking at fish.

✨I’m a published kidlit illustrator from Hawai‘i. I’d love to work on character driven projects.✨
