You Otter Know

These are things that Shelly the Little Otter Puppet (@shellytotter) thinks are neat.

Speak Up. Speak Out. Just Speak.

I’ve been seeing a few posts about online harassment, cyber bullying, and even just self loathing over the past few days. And it’s driven me to the point where I need to speak up.

Originally, I wanted to have something larger planned for this; get some of my peers involved and make a grand gesture that people could rally behind. 

However, life doesn’t always go as planned. It took me longer than I had anticipated to complete this, and the momentum I used to try to get others involved waned. I’m no leader; I don’t have a commanding presence or the ability to inspire others. I’m a hobby artist with limited time.

But I still care. And I can still try.

If you find the time to re-blog this, add your story to this. You victories, your ability to persevere. The times you supported those who needed it most. Let your voice be heard.

You’re not alone.

Merry Christmas! (or whatever it is you celebrate!)

I hope everyone has a lovely time with family and friends, eating lots of yummy things and opening a present or two. Stay safe and stay warm!

(Here is my Christmas card design for this year, featuring one of my favorite fairy tale villains, the Snow Queen)

First thing I do when I get my advanced copies of Invader Zim is dump them on the floor and roll around in them.

I hope the credits for the Google Doodles continue to include the Doodler names; Sophie Diao did today's James Welch doodle

Today’s doodle for the 37th anniversary of The Neverending Story book publishing (phew!) was super fun to work on! I had a great time reading the book. For some reason, I never saw the movie as a kid, so I decided to avoid seeing anything from the movie until after I finished the Doodle. Watching the movie tonight for the first time : )
