Hi Reader

I hope the warmer weather has found you lately. It's back to 30 degrees here. If you ever visit the Nashville/Tennessee area during "winter" months. Make sure to pack shorts and heavy jackets because one day will feel like summer and the next your nose will burn from the cold wind. Variety is the spice of life always keeping things interesting. :)

​I wanted to say hello and wish you a smooth flow into March.
At the moment, I'm taking a vacation from the picture book sample I've been prepping for submission. When you're both making the story and drawing the pictures it's easy to feel fried.

So, I've been painting, creating collectible prints of originals, and making tiny treasures to refill my well.
​
A key practice to stay in the creative zone for the long haul is taking breaks. I do that by having different creative outlets like writing, painting, baking (some of my attempts are edible...sometimes), playing games, going outdoors, or watching a movie. How do you take breaks? Do you need a break right now?
​
The latest episode of Creative Sparks! is out today and here you can sit with me and take a break. Grab a cup of tea, coffee, or whatever you need right now.

Opportunities!

I'm thrilled to let go of some creative responsibilities. BynBeary will continue to produce video content so I'm looking for a freelance Video Editor to help with our videos in a project-based capacity. Please send this opportunity to someone creative and collaborative. Work samples can be sent to yanuary@bynbeary.com.

More details are here.

Thank you for the gift of your precious time.
Happy Women's History Month (Tomorrow & Everyday)!
