My 13 year old daughter has been tirelessly working on a project writing, illustrating, animating, directing and film editing a fantasy story about mystical wolves. The main character is an unusually powerful but misfit girl wolf who must discover her true self.
Here is the trailer for the future animated movie:
Her abilities amaze me, but it is her determination and passion that makes me the proud father I am.
To see more of her work, here is her YouTube channel:

secret's out
I amassed quite a stack of 3x5 cards with notes to myself on book making, and for some laughs or insights I decided to share some of them with you here.
Creativity is subversive.
Stand out. Or get lost.
Indecisiveness means you are not listening carefully to your emotions.
Color is a tool, not a crutch.
Manipulate the viewer.
The character is king.
Do more drawing than thinking. Then think.
The page needing something does NOT mean adding crap to it.
Stay simple.
Put no strength where it does not belong. Does it support the story?
Is it remarkable?
OK is not acceptable. OK sucks.
--I'm not going to claim my work reflects these fine principles, but only that I strive to attain them. Anyone else willing to share their insights into making books?

The review finished up with this:
"Petunia makes delightful company; kids will recognize themselves and clamor for rereads. "
Aint that nice?
