THE PROS DO IT?
I can show you how.
It seems like just yesterday I was doing my very first children's book. I wish I could tell you I was one of those super-organized people who kept track of every single book project they've ever worked on but I lost track somewhere after the 250th book. What I do remember, very clearly, are the projects that marked a turning point in my career and I can tell you there is no greater feeling than having your name attached to a project you’re really proud of. Whether it's in a library or on the shelf of your local book store nothing beats the thrill of seeing your hard work paying off.
Each year I accept a few very motivated artists who are interested in bringing a specific project to market or improving the overall quality of their work.

Just use the link below to drop me a line and tell me what you'd like to work on.
