I remember my grandfather writing in a letter to some of his friends that he just knew that I was going to be a published author one day. That day has come. I wish that he could see it. At the end of 2022 I began working on a West Texas inspired animal series. After working on them I decided that I wanted to turn them into a children's book. 

Like my grandmother before me (who wrote poetry), I sent my work to the Library of Congress and it was approved for copyright. I'm self-published. I decided that this was the path for me and that's okay. So, in 2023 my first children's book is officially available! 

I am so pleased that my art has joined with story telling in this way. I have three more books I plan to publish before the end of the year and two others that I'm working with an author as the illustrator. I'm excited to see where this chapter of my journey leads.

My book is now available through my publisher, on Amazon, and on Barnes & Noble. This illustrated book features fun facts and colorful pictures for many Texas animals - a perfect book for any animal lover!
