Don't stop me now! Reading your messages and drawing your requests has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. The Force was with me yet again when that post went viral. There are more to come so if you haven't heard back yet, give me a little (or a lot) more time. When I'm done, I'm hoping to post some stats about the most popular requests. Some real surprises!!

We made a book for your baby! A million things going on -- including new Star Wars -- but here's something old that's new again. McToad is back, this time as a board books! Why? Possibly because @latenightseth went on tv and said nice things about it! And definitely because the illustrator @johnhendrix made a truly beautiful book! I mean, it is gorgeous and there's so much to look at, while making sound effects. Thanks @bettysbooksstl for the post!

Okay, folks, the Wizard School Dropout shirts are back on Teepublic! They'll be $16 for a short time. /t-shirt/92108331-wizard-school-dropout Thanks to everybody who encouraged me! This is a message that I feel strongly about. We need to loudly and proudly oppose JK Rowling's message of hate! And, while I'm telling anyone to boycott Harry Potter, I personally won't give her a penny to spend on anti-trans groups. In short, I dropped out of that wizard school and I'm not going back. I have no interest in making money from this and am just using Teepublic to get the job done. Backstory: Previously, the shirts targeted by a copyright strike. I thought it was unfair and decided to print my own. I did, but there are limits to how many I can make and mail. So I'm trying again with more generic lettering to avoid the copyright strike.

Thanks to everybody who wrote in to request a drawing! Your messages have been wonderful! Thanks also to everyone who has commented... I'm afraid I have not been able to answer all of those, but I have enjoyed them immensely!!

Had an amazing time hearing old friends playing old time music at the Alexander Black House in Blacksburg, Va. Tim Thornton on bass, Mike Gangloff on fiddle and Isak Howell* on banjo, among the porch full of players. (Yes, Mr. Howell was named after Isak, who is in reality a really nice guy.) Believe it or not, I used to call square dances for Tim's band and made album covers for Isak and Mike's.

We’re gearing up for Star Wars Day on May the 4th! Reel Coastal host @aus.mich sat down with the New York Times bestselling author of the Origami Yoda series @tomangleberger to chat about the books, the movies, and why these stories from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away have stood the test of time.

So happy to get a bunch of new followers who read Origami Yoda back in the day. I wrote the books for you then without knowing exactly who you were and it means a lot to hear from you now! Drop me a dm and I'll send you back a drawing of your favorite Star Wars character. And May the Force be with you always!!

Did you know you can easily run MacPaint on an emulated classic Mac on your browser? It's called Infinite Mac. Free and fabulous. Only semi-compatible with my current touchscreen/stylus set-up, but better than dragging a mouse all over your desk!
