I was so excited to receive a package in the mail today!A while back, I drew some simple line drawings for a book called Conversational Southern that Anne Calloway was planning to publish. She promised to send me a copy when they were ready. Today, a copy finally arrived! Yay!
Sadly, I am never once mentioned as the illustrator. Instead, a Meghan Gale got credit for the cover design. Tsk-tsk! This is after I had to insist on colouring the title image myself because I was so displeased with the colouring the layout artist did. Ah well!
Nevertheless, I am really, really happy that the book was finally published and that I got to play a part in its making. Below are some of the illustrations, and her thank you note :)
