why am I in New Jersey ?!

I haven't found my own tools so I'm back to zen.

on some level it's always a surprise
[judith] 

this is really happening.
I AM a picture book maker.

and all these meetings with publishers are so amazing - in December he invited me to a chocolaterie with soy milk chocolate and today this woman invited me to her beautiful house and prepared karigane tea for me.
how perfect it is. 

the more frustrated, the more brave.
