🚨COVER REVEAL!!!🚨

Super excited to reveal the cover of my debut graphic novel MONKEY KING AND THE WORLD OF MYTHS: THE MONSTER AND THE MAZE. (Publisher:@penguinkids) The book will be out April 2, 2024.

The action-packed graphic novel series will be perfect for kids (and young-at-hearts) who love mythology, humor, and friendship adventures!

Summary:
A long-forgotten evil has reemerged, determined to transform everyone—humans, beasts, and gods alike—into monsters. And there’s only one being who can stop it, or at least that’s what he thinks. Sun Wukong, aka the Monkey King, is said to be the mightiest of all beasts, and he’s made a deal with the gods. They will grant him his greatest wish and make him a god too. All he has to do is battle these monsters, defeat this evil, and basically save the world. What could possibly go wrong?

Do you listen to anything when you draw? 🎨

This month on my Substack, I explore what might be happening in my brain when I work and listen to stuff, inspired by a book I really enjoyed: “Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain”, by Lisa Feldman Barrett. 🧠⚡️

Thank you! Very honored! ❤️

Bengal has been roaming my hood for a long while now. On his good days, he’ll even let me pat him.

But every time I make a TNR appointment, he would simply disappear the night of trapping. It’s as if he has some sixth sense, and he’s not falling for it.

I staked out for three hours last night, but again Bengal didn’t show up. I ended up catching a tuxedo-cat who occasionally passed by the hood — he was yowling very loudly. Well, he got my attention. Okay. We can fix you first.

As for Bengal, well, there’s always another time.

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about Dorie Clark’s The Long Game and what it means for those of us making books in uncertain times.

I wrote about that in my latest Substack.

A big congratulations to the latest release of I’M BUSY, written by Michael Ian Black @michaelianblack, wonderfully illustrated by Debbie Ridpath Ohi @inkygirl, published by @simonkids.

This is a funny picture book with a kind reminder of what to do when our schedules get out of control. Such a great read! Best for age 4-7. 😊
