I have some more detailed thoughts on this, but it really blows that SCBWI is so cost prohibitive. I've never pursued membership because of the cost, but if I did in order to join their digital conference to access the "put your portfolio in front of art directors" add on, I'd be out $300ish.

I loved illustrating this book! A wonderful project that I was lucky to be part of 🌈

Happy pub day to @mlereads.bsky.social and Beyond They/Them! We love this book and hope you do too💘 publishing.andrewsmcmeel.com/book/beyond-...

IT’S MY BOOK BIRTHDAY!!!! 🥳🌈✨ it’s hard to express what it means for this book to be out in the world today. amidst all the attacks on genderdiverse people not just in the states but around the world, this book is a reminder that “nonbinary people have always been here & can be found everywhere.”

thank you to everyone @andrewsmcmeelkids.bsky.social for bringing this book into a world that desperately needs it, even if it doesn’t always want it. thank you to @cameronmukwa.bsky.social for your gorgeous illustrations – this book would not be what it is without you! 🙌🙌

I am banging the drum again and begging you to stop calling your comics, your illustrations, your video essays, your writing, your editing, whatever you make, don't call it "content"! AI and tech bros try to reduce our work to "content", but you're making something that matters! Be proud of that!

📚 🥳 🎂 ATHLETE IS AGENDER with @katherinelocke.bsky.social Nicole Melleby, @sassinsf.com Karina Manta, Isaac Fitzsimons, @mlereads.bsky.social @v-e-tirado.com 📅 5-15-25 @ 7:30p ET Register FREE + pre-order option! 🌈 xuyx9zzuvpq.typeform.com/to/IWF6eaWK?... @lbschool.bsky.social

FINDING MYSELF WITH YOU is a romance both deeply personal & of my wildest dreams – falling in love & changing each other forever as you become more alike, wading into the liminal space of sexuality & gender. I hope you’ll look forward to falling down the rabbit hole with Alex & Shayan.

I'm looking forward to pride this year, and couldn't wait til June to draw this! Made using the rizzcraft set from @truegrittexture.bsky.social. I've never used this much texture at once, and I don't think I can go back! #art #sketch #kidlit #kidlitart

Happy Kidlit Art Postcard Day! I love illustrating diverse, warm, and heartfelt stories--especially ones related to cultural traditions, queer joy, or whimsical worlds. Would love to work on PBs, chapter books, or MG/YA covers! 📚Proudly rep'ed by @jemiscoe.bsky.social at @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

🌈 Happy book birthday to MY LITTLE GOLDEN BOOK ABOUT PRIDE, written by @kylelukoff @randomhousekids and illustrated by me! I poured so much of my💜into this book--it's full of cameos of my real life queer friends, Kyle's friends, & the queer people past and present who have fought for our community

Happy Pokémon day! Indu chooses sobble because tears are commonplace when reading Lunar Boy #Art #Illustration #OC #OCsky #Artsky

really excited to announce my new zine, “Press A, Chef!” It’s 16 pages of cooking/restaurant sim video game recommendations. I hope you enjoy and play some of my faves! Available at goatpunch.itch.io ! You can download it for free, but tips are always appreciated :)

I'd say "teach kids the visual literacy to understand that even when comic panels don't have words in them- they're still communicating something meaningful" but at this point it's going to be the kids teaching their parents and teachers that.

I don't get the angle of saying that because graphic novels are quicker to finish reading means that it's somehow a less fulfilling experience. You don't hear these people say "why teach kids what goes into a poem if most of them are short?!" Just arbitrary points being made.

Man if you can't recognize the literary merit of comics that's a skill issue.

Time for a cover reveal! THE BEASTS BENEATH THE WINDS, a middle grade anthology about Southeast Asian cryptids by an all SEAn author and illustrator team is ready for preorder! 🐉 cover design by Micah Fleming! #Booksky #art #illustration

Hey gang, just putting it out here that I'm not going to be as active on social media at large--lots of projects in the works, and even bluesky isn't great for my mental health, haha. I'll be checking dms periodically! Stay safe out there.
