    Dear Friend and Fellow Maker,Today’s video shares how my book, The Spinning House: Stories to Light the Way, came about. It seems as if I myself have been a little mouse working behind the walls of our home for many, many years to bring about this little chapter book. There are three stories interwoven within the overall story of this book. I am now planning to illustrate them in full color as standalone picture books. <div

    Dear Friend and Fellow Maker,In this video I’m sharing an overview of how these books have come into being. Everything from how I found time to make the drawings to what I’ve used to create the actual book in digital form so that it can be uploaded for publication. There are a few other things I’d like to add here, that aren’t in the video.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aMzb!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstac

It helps me so much to get the word out about my new book! 😍Share</sp
