I’m still not able to login to this website at home, but I’m staying at my parents’ for the week so they can have some grandbaby time, so I’m here for the moment. However, I originally wanted to post this on the Firmament Series website, but apparently the domain is not propagating. If you don’t know what that means, don’t worry, I don’t know either. We’re working on it. Hopefully all will be well again soon…

There’s nothing that makes an artist feel quite as good as having “fans.” I may not have many, but the people I interact with who really love my work and are really touched by it and ask for more always inspire me so very much. One such artist sent me a message on Instagram awhile back saying she had drawn a picture of her favorite book character just for fun, and she sent me this:

I was absolutely blown away by this beautiful drawing, and I asked her permission to share it with all of you! I love how she made my beloved character come to life and I’m so grateful she shared it with me! It motivates me even more to finish up the edits on the next Firmament book.
