Happy Friday, #kidlit folks! My PB ideas usually come as characters in my sketchbook first. I wonder if this is true for most illustrator/authors? #kidlitart #authorillustrator

I guess it's a perk of being an illustrator, huh? We get to meet them early!

Yes! It's hard to write a character i haven't seen yet.

Absolutely. Sometimes, I come up with a situation without drawing it. But the character definitely gets drawn first.

I think it may be true for me often! I was just sketching characters in Procreate!
