- Nov 07, 2020
I've always believed in working hard, and I'm grateful that people seem to connect with the kinds of stories I'm passionate about telling.
- Drawing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Going to so many book events keeps me connected with my readership while constantly reminding me that all the long hours at the drawing desk are worthwhile.
- City

New York is great for busy creative types. The city has a pulse that races, and you either keep up with it or you leave.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I sit down to begin penciling a page, most of the hard work for me is done. I can concentrate solely on my art from that point on, which is the fun part!
- Growing Up

- Nov 07, 2020
I did keep detailed journals from about fifth grade on, and every so often as I was growing up, I would re-read them and reflect on the previous years of my life.
- First-Person

- Nov 07, 2020
All of the narration in 'Smile' is first-person. Most of the books that I grew up reading had first-person narrators for some reason. My diaries were written in this voice, and since this story is autobiographical, it just felt like a natural extension.
- Control
- |

I used to rely on black-and-white, and while I was working on 'Smile,' I learned to adapt to color on my end.
- Hair

- Nov 07, 2020
I wanted to be into fashion, but I was never the kind of person who could keep up with fashion trends, and I could never style my hair the way everyone else's was - my hair was very thin, so I couldn't do, like, the sprayed bangs everyone else was into.
- Mouth

- Nov 07, 2020
I was kind of a cross between Kristy and Mary Anne among 'The Baby-Sitters Club' characters. I was shy, but I was also kind of a tomboy, and I was really good at sticking my foot in my mouth even though I was shy.
