Each chapter of my novel works through the major arcana of the #tarot. I started off with colorful pastel collages, but realized I'd need to do black & white for the chapter art. The cards embed elements from my story. #BluePitHype #BluePit #Tarotsky #witchsky #artsky #writingcommunity #MajorArcana

9 tarot cards, by me
A colorful hermit card and High Priestess card, and black and white drawings of a Lovers card, Magician, Temperance, Fool, Moon, Sun, and Death, with characters and settings from my novel.

A child unfolds their story the only way they can, following an assault and explicit directions to ‘Don’t Tell.’ IT'S OK TO TELL is a story that needs telling. #GhostPit #PB #C #Q #OS

Nora Doesn't Talk Nora has sensory issues. Colors were too loud, words were too bright, and her thoughts were too jumbled and heavy to get out. Until one day mom gives her a pair of pink glasses and a hat with earflaps. #GhostPit #PB #WIP #ages4-7
