My art and stories have always been about building a world misfits can escape to and belong in. My life is much the same.

Many of my Petrichor illustrations are drawn in a looser style. I want to leave room for viewers to use their imaginations while reading. Loose styles are fun and great companions for stories. :)

I'll be selling prints and postcards of new and old work at Bridge 9 Records during the Beverly, MA art crawl on Saturday, November 15th (11-5). Old Profane Existence cover prints, new Moth Queens prints, and everything in between.

It's been a tough year. Feeling worn down to my last thread reminds me that's all I need. <<grins>>

A pencil sketch of four horses with eyes everywhere.

Oh, Look! Horses!
My friend and I were joking about how distracted we'd be by the beauty of the four horses of the apocalypse and my friend Jake said, "So Many Eyes!" So, I drew it.

I keep lists of indie authors I encounter on Bluesky. I slowly buy books from this list interspersed with books I read/listen to on Libby. Audiobooks go to the top of my list.

If you see this, post your green art!

Actor and friend Michele Bazirguez on a set my husband Will and other members of IATSE built. Season 2 of Walking Dead's "Dead City." Great job, everyone!

This is even funnier if you've ever met them.

Great review of my friend Larissa Glasser's book "F4."

Thank you!!!! Not quite 71 yet... Maybe it's the answer to everything that wasn't covered by 42.

It's my birthday!!!! :)
