It's #NationalAuthorsDay. Pls find a way to support us - review, buy or borrow a book, post a recommendation, tackle a TBR, or try something different...like this upper middlegrade dystopian story with a love of Earth at its heart. Help us to keep writing stuff that matters. ❤️

If you like a spooky-ish, paranormal vibe, but don't want outright horror, this is the one you want. #YA #paranormal #kidlit #middlegrade #booksky
If you don't count a current work-in-progress, this is my spookiest story for the season. It's got all the tropes you expect and want, but with (what I think) is an interesting twist. #YA #paranormal #kidlit #middlegrade #booksky

Difference between character design for Middlegrade vs YA. My #OC for a fantasy mystery story and why I had to change her design to fit graphic novels for 9-12. Lessons I took from the kidslit GN course. #graphicnovel #ocsky #kidslit

Drawing for middlegrade graphic novels is a big learning curve! i have to cut down on panels, less dialogue heavy pages and let the art speak more. It focuses on kid leads and their internal struggles more than YA stories
