Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.

The sun was hot that day,

So he said, “Let’s run and
We’ll have some fun

This is my first (released) collaboration and I am very happy that it’s with my very best friend, a hidden talent, Yoa Sarigan. 🙂

No post for maybe 2 days

Because its the weekend!

Your dear friend here will be spending the weekend nursing his forehead wound and writing pages of the book! 🙂Here are photos of my planner, my notebook (where I write my draft script) and my breakfast. My brain’s all messed up and disarranged that’s why I stick on little post it notes on the draft pages to remind me of revisions or story ideas that just pop out of my head. If you look closer you might have a gist of what’s coming.

Thanks for reading and your support!
