“Anne was sitting at her open window...as she drank in the beauty of the summer dusk...The eastern sky above the firs was flushed faintly pink from the reflection of the west, and Anne was wondering dreamily if the spirit of color looked like that…”

Create what only you can create. Do not worry is it good or if others will like it. Just create. Create what is rooted deep within you that needs to find expression in whatever form it takes.

Today is #NationalMeadowsDay! 🥳 The loss of our uplifting hay meadow habitats in the UK makes my heart hurt, so I want to share with you the secret for turning your lawn into a mini wildflower meadow for *free* 👊

Creativity is revolutionary. It is resistance against a culture that too often prizes utilitarianism. Art offers questions & questions authority in all its forms. It offers possibilities & hope. It reminds us why we are here in this brief, beautiful life.

This is Marta McDowell's book: #BeatrixPotter's Gardening Life. Some of you may have even attended her talk at the 2018 Beatrix Potter Society conference.
Marta's conference presentation is available to watch on the members only section of the Beatrix Potter Society website.

Authors & publicists: credit is even more important when you're showing an artist's work for the first time, such as a book cover!
It's win-win: by crediting them, it shows you acknowledge/appreciate their work, they're more likely to share, and you'll reach their fanbases.

A little blue ball leads to a monster-sized rivalry over whose side of the page is whose. An “graphic novel” picture book where the comic panels act as clearly defined property lines between two quarrelling monsters.
