Wait, why am I reading all of this in Syndrome's voice from The Incredibles??? That does not bode well.

(I'm still stressed, because I always am, but I'm trying to remind myself that these kids are nailing it every year and I'm just lucky enough to be along for the ride.)

I just do pictures! I upload a couple of pictures (stock, copyright free, my own books, page flips) with tagline type stuff and elevator pitches, and just post that to some music! If it takes me longer than five minutes to put it together, I probably won't do it!

Yeah, I got burned out and needed a break. But now that my sales have kind of leveled out without any recent spikes, I'm going to see if going back to it helps at all.

I'm going to order some when my royalties come in. With shipping already being stupid expensive, it's the least I can do to try and accommodate.

She wants to go into dance/musical theater, so I feel like a solid math foundation will give her some back up opportunities.

Oh, I'm excited! I was about 15% of the way through when I hit this point, and I was enjoying it much more than expected (considering I had written it!) and now I'm just going to have some fun!

She'll be 16 at the end of the summer! But she's always been good with math. Not even so much that it comes easy to her, but she's stubborn and once she gets it, it sticks.

All I could think right before it happened was "NOT AGAIN!" since this is our second minivan after our first one was totaled a few years back when I was rear-ended in stopped traffic.

Thank you! I felt very action star-ish when I slammed on the brakes and the minivan spun around 90 degrees, but the adrenaline crash afterwards was no fun. 😂

Next year, just scribble across your tax forms, "Can't pay. Got the autism." And you're good to go!

The mix of dandelions and violets is probably my favorite spring show of color.
