I love Ontario for the convenience stores that keep their flowers outside during the day, and the fruit stands on the streets.

As a heartless killing machine, I was a terrible failure.

Little cover design doodle from like a week ago that I never posted :') more to come. Maybe. Eventually. We'll see.

Can hardly believe it but Barnes & Noble picked my book “The Bakery Dragon” as the overall winner of their 2025 Children’s and YA Book Awards! This is such an unexpected honor, and truly doesn’t feel real still! It wasn’t long ago that this book was just a single drawing and a brain-wyrm of an idea. Thank you SO so much to every single person who supported and shared that drawing and encouraged me to take this little guy so far. I couldn’t have done it without you, and you received a special shoutout in my B&N blog about the win. And if you can believe it, I get to make even more! Book 2 is coming out in a few short months in October. I can’t wait to see how far Ember can fly!
