I love your channel. I'm so glad you didn't stop making videos.
So glad I didn’t stop either! It makes me so happy to hear folks say they love my chanel! 🥹🫶🏼
I love your favorite quote and the beautiful illustrations you showed us! I can't wait to read your book 🤗
Last weekend, I had to speak in front of an auditorium of people and I felt so terrified beforehand! I kept questioning why I would put myself in that situation...!? But after it was over, I felt really brave and proud of myself 🥰 Its so good to stretch ourselves and try things that are scary! It helps me to remember that sometimes nervousness is just a different manifestation of excitement - we're excited to share something that we've put a lot of effort into! 🙂 Good luck with release week - we're all cheering for you! 💜
Thank you so much friend for the beautiful encouraging words! I went through 6 interviews this past week all for my book and I am so proud of myself. The jitters were all there but I told myself, “I can do brave things” and I sure did! I am staying optimistic and taking these interviews as opportunities to practice my public speaking & to find joy outside of my comfort zone. ☺️🫶🏼
I am looking forward to reading your book. I appreciate your honesty about your publishing journey. Wishing you the best on your IG lives❤
Thank you so much for the encouragement! ☺️🫶🏼

Thinking about it, maybe for a love book reading?!! I was born in San Diego! So I have a deep love for SD ☺️🫶🏼
Your illustrations are gorgeous!! I’ve been thinking of getting traditionally published. I was considering indie just because of the creative flexibility, but I’ve concluded that u can’t afford it. I’d like to know how it works, illustrating for your traditionally published book? I’d like to do the same thing
There’s are many different factors that take place depending on the publisher. Indie publishers seem to be a bit more flexible but sometimes don’t offer the best advances or royalty compensation. So you really have to pick and choose what best suits you.
In my experience with my upcoming book, I wrote the manuscript first, went though the entire editing process which took about 8 months and then after that I had 3 months to start on all the illustrations for the interior pages + the cover. I don’t think these deadlines are ideal if you are the writer & illustrator of the book, but because I had the flexibility to manage these deadlines, I was able to meet them. But I didn’t find them ideal 😅
@@alifeofpoetry thanks for answering 🤍
You are a beautiful metamorphosis 🦋
You are the sweetest! 🥹🫶🏼
