The irony of posting this via a screen is not lost on me 😅! (But did get outside for a walk first 🙌)

On a mission to get outside each and every day, before looking at a screen. Crucially I already feel better🌱🌿🦢…. But will my work improve?…. Let’s see.

Illustration of long-haired girl in red clock on flower-filled green hillside, looking up into the blue sky. In the sky, we see a few fluffy clouds along with some white skywriting that spellings the word "bluesky."

Bluesky headers included kidlit/YA editors, agents, art directors and book designers, book bloggers, K-12 educators & librarians, authors and illustrators, indie bookstores, tabletop/board gamers, authors who write spooky middle grade, Canadian kidlit creators, illustrators, podcasters.

*Updated* My post about why I'm on Bluesky, tips for those new to Bluesky, tips for others going thru "social media fatigue", my personal take on social media for the kidlit community right now, links to custom feeds / resources. debbieohi.com/2023/09/soci...

THIS! I poured my heart and soul into a brand identity project. Then was not credited anywhere nor invited to the launch.
Fellow creatives however... absolute legends for supportively amplifying projects and crediting appropriately😉

Thank you for the invite code to be here @brianlarossa.com ❤️💙☁️
