Walter the White Crayon

9 years ago I was tasked with creating something with a crayon. Since I cannot draw to save my life, I decided to write a story. Inspired by my niece’s love of drawing, Walter was born. Walter spends many years feeling useless until one day a little girl shows him just how useful he is.
It took nine years but Walter is now published and available for purchase. I hope you all come to love him as I do.

    I Hate Everything

    I like to joke that I’m an optimist, masking as a realist, masking as a pessimist, but honestly, I am just a plain old optimistic person. I genuinely believe that no matter the situation it will work out exactly how it should. However, being an optimist does not mean I am always happy. I can,…
