I shouldn't be sharing this yet, this illustration is from the second part of my Legatee story.
I have not even set a publication date yet.
Nevertheless, I couldn't help myself. After I heard some highlights on the news, I just needed to share something that expressed my feelings and concerns.
While this is copyrighted, it is of a Character and about events that hasn't been introduced in book one.
Please consider this a kind of sneak peek.
Was considering which of my illustrations I want for my profile, and decided on this one. It is from my, “To Be Continued“ page.
While I tried to keep the first book more on the light and cozy side, the second book becomes more serious and darker. I believe this illustration highlights this, and gives a hint to what is to come if my hero doesn't succeed.

I couldn't find a 2025 planner with all the bells and whistles that I needed, or they were too expensive...I therefore decided to make my own. A desk version and one for my handbag.
If anyone is having difficulty finding a new planner this year, perhaps you can also make your own. You can even use store bought stickers to decorate your cover.

Thank you @debinhawaii for creating this fun play-card & thanks for the tag 🌺☺️💝.
1- some of my Artisan Crafted Books are finally out in the (local) world📚🗺️.
2- too busy over the past couple of days to continue reading...this evening, I'm enjoying some time beside the Christmas tree with C'mas jingles playing 📚🎄🎶💝.
3- enjoying all the Christmas TV shows/movies/specials 📺🎄💝.

In the near future, I plan on obtaining a license to sell my arts and crafts (including my Artisan Crafted Books) at local vender events. However, until then, I have decided to make limited editions of my handmade books that I have started leaving in local Little Free Libraries and giving as book donations.
