This one's a gem! Their #SCBWI Middle Grade Lunch Break 3 years ago seemed like a blast reading #TeslasAttic with a hint of Baseball. 📚⚾

Major credits to @elizabethvantassel for this wonderful photo. I hope we can all do this again soon!

Yesterday, I worked on the large plot for the multiple books in this series and got a bit freaked out by the size of the giant question mark in the middle.

Then my wife set me straight by telling me the plots of Outlander and A Discovery of Witches. Once I heard how complicated time travel makes plots, I realized how relatively simple my plot is. If you aren't accidentally marrying an ancestor of the husband you left behind in your original time line, before getting swept back into your original time line (possible spoiler alert...but maybe not, I was pretty confused) pregnant are you even HAVING an adventure?

DRAWING UPDATE: Back in the mountains! I put map drawing aside in November to focus on getting the book to the editor, and three months passed in the blink of a cursor.

Now I'm back in the groove. Finished up the northern Barbarous mountain range this afternoon while listening to tutorials on book publishing. The before/after pics demonstrate how a bit of light shading creates depth. Also, as you can see from the detail I'm putting into a map that people on e-books will never see, it's possible drawing mountains is a perfect storm to someone with my propensity for gilding lilies.

Stay healthy out there,

Dito

✨ All about Peaches! ✨ Originally, Peaches was meant to be the MC of this series, although that changed in later drafts. Peaches was actually the hardest character to write and required the most rewriting and reworking for me to be at all satisfied with her character. I love her character and the growth she goes through, but she probably isn't a person I'd be friends with in real life. Wed either be great friends, or we'd hate each other. Out of all the characters in this series, she probably goes through the most.

#persist #dream #believe⠀ ⠀ Man, oh man, is this my song.⠀ ⠀ Last week I went out on that proverbial ledge and booked my first podcast #readingwithyourkids podcast @jedliemagic. Since then, I’ve had an opportunity to have my book featured on a website, booked a school visit, and received offers for #betareaders and #bookreviews BEFORE I even asked!⠀ ⠀ I am stunned.⠀ I love when things happen without my help!⠀ ⠀ Go do that scary thing. it may turn out to be the most amazing adventure ever.💥⠀ ⠀ #writing #writerslife #mglit #chapterbook #middlegradenovel #childrensbook #childrensauthor #kidlitauthor #kidbooks #chaseyourdream #believeinyou #dreambig #lovewritingmg #mgwriter #mgwriters #mgauthor #withthecourageofamouse #thesuperheroschoolseries #doitscared #trynewthings #livetheadventure #believeitcan (at Wheatland, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnhDenLHEeb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p2s6zu4ldmig
