Done!

Well I've done it!  The coloring book has landed!

In it there are twelve intricately drawn bugs to color.  I drew the first one (that praying mantis) just months after Ransom was born, with the goal of eventually turning it into a book.  Check!

I can now always say that I've published a book, which is pretty cool.  And since I went through the learning process of creating this first book, the next time I want to independently publish something I now know how. Part of what took me so long this time around is I kept dragging my feet because I didn't know how to do things.  Google and YouTube are lifesavers.

My next book project is a children's book a good friend of mine wrote and asked me to illustrate.  So that will be a 2019 goal.  I'd also like to do another coloring book.  I'm thinking perhaps potted plants, and in a smaller format, like 5"x7" or something similar.
