Halfway through my first middle grade graphic novel. 100 pages left to ink/colour. #newbook #wip

In light of the second anniversary of Speak Now Taylor’s Version, I decided to go on a purple kick. 💜 #swiftie #friendshipbracelets #taylorswift #handmade

A few things I’ve made lately. #swiftie #handmade #taylornation

Learn about @ashleyspires.bsky.social's creation of a great combination of STEM and SEL. A perfect third book in her makers series with a truly magnificent creation at the end. www.mariacmarshall.com/single-post/... @kidscanpress.bsky.social #interview #kidlit

To celebrate my new book, THE MOST MAGNIFICENT TEAM, I made friendship bracelets for a soon to be announced giveaway! Stay tuned… #kidlit #authorillustrator #canadiankidlit

Come visit me on Saturday for Indie Bookstore Day at Blackbond Books in Ladner! Bruce the Dog will be joining me in his first public appearance as my bookmaking assistant 🐶 #indiebookstoreday #blackbondbooks

This week’s bracelet creations:

Here are some new bracelet designs I made this week 🖤💚🩵💛

Some creations from the past week: new DOWN BAD design and updated designs for DEAR READER and KARMA (kitty charm!!) #taylorswift #beading #handmade #erastour #friendshipbracelets #taylornation

Playing with new bead shapes and colour palettes has become my happy place 💚 #handmade #taylorswift #swiftie #beading #newdesign

These take way too long to make but they’re SO PRETTY 💜 #taylorswift #taylornation #handmade #swiftie #friendshipbracelet #erastour

Amazing author copy haul today! I’m gonna have to go get a new bookshelf (or more friends with wee children.) #newbooks #author #illustrator #kidlit #canadiankidlit @kidscanpress.bsky.social

Making the whole place shimmer with these ones 💎 #taylornation #taylorswift #handmade #beading #swiftie #bejeweled #midnights #erastour

Scored the coveted acoustic piano ornament just so it could pose with my piano flower bracelet 🥰🌸 #taylorswift #swiftie #friendshipbracelets #erastour

So it turns out that inking a 200 page graphic novel takes me a very long time. (Cue all experienced graphic novelists rolling their eyes at the obviousness of that statement.) #wip #kidlit #illustrator #middlegrade #comic #newbook

Also I have a lot of furry children. #cats #pets #furfamily

I’m new to Bluesky! I’m a Canadian author/illustrator of children’s books and comics and I make Swiftie bracelets too! (Available for sale on Etsy every 6 weeks or so.) #swiftie #creator #authorillustrator #taylorswift #illustration #kidsbooks
