I’m so excited to finally be able to share this news! I wrote a graphic novel for kids called Bigfoot and Nessie, about, you guessed it, Bigfoot and Nessie. It’s about their friendship, but at its heart, it’s also a story about finding creativity without putting pressure on yourself–something I struggle with a lot.<\/p>\n

The idea came about after binge watching a lot of We Bare Bears, and I was thinking about Charlie (he’s a bigfoot, if you’re not familiar with the show) and how he doesn’t want to be photographed, and I started thinking what if a bigfoot did<\/em> want to get photographed? But was also failing at it? I added in Nessie, who’s got the exact opposite problem–she’s\u00c2\u00a0too<\/em> famous and is trying to avoid getting noticed–and it came together from there.<\/p>\n

Laura Knetzger<\/a>, who writes and draws the Bug Boys<\/a> series, is doing the artwork, and I’ve seen it, and it’s amazing! Check out her artwork in the Bug Boys cover below. And also go read it, because it’s a really fun slice-of-life series about two friends having adventures.<\/p>\n
