How I know you're one of my people: this sticker makes you smile 🦖🦕 ❤ How to grab this sticker: 1. Click the Etsy link in my bio 🦖 2. Go to "Nerdy, Bookish Stickers," 🦕 3. Choose "Dinosaurs" 🦖 I'll send it out the next day! Read on, nerds!

My only goal/hope for my first experience as an art vendor was *just one thing.* Just sell one thing, and I’ll feel like I’m good enough. Because as an English teacher who learned to letter via Instagram videos while the baby napped, I’ve definitely got my fair share of impostor syndrome. ⚫ And guess what! I sold my first item before the event even started! It was such an awesome experience to see people reacting to my work in real time--to see real smiles over my bookish pieces, and to meet like-minded nerds who want to talk about Harry Potter and Game of Thrones. Check out my blog to see more about my time at the Rockwall Comic Fest! (link in bio) ⚫ Pictured: Four custom watercolor bookmarks that a librarian got for her library aides! I had my first shot at live lettering here, too… and man… the pressure was on! Loved the chance to create custom pieces, as well as the opportunity to release some of my nervous energy through lettering.

After I debrief with my friends and coworkers this week, pretty sure we will have nothing else to talk about and I will retreat into my introvert cave for an unforeseen period of time. Thanks for the memories, @hbo @gameofthrones. I'll probably fall asleep jamming out to the GOT soundtrack and 90s r&b, to remember our fallen. #andnowourwatchhasended
