Celebrating the new picture book JUST KEEP GOING written by Lynne Smith and illustrated by Lauren Gallegos!

Happy Pub Day to JUST KEEP GOING! This book is a reminder to myself that this is really all I can do at times. This career I’ve chosen is hard, with lots of ups and downs, and the only way through is to keep my head high, take one step at a time, breath, envision what I want, and Just. Keep. Going.

I have a NEW LOGO!! I’m keeping the general theme because it still feels like “me”. I’ve changed my business to “Studio” instead of “Illustration” because it’s shorter and I do more than just illustration! I was also encouraged to change my giraffe to a fox, which is my favorite animal. #kidlitart
