I was asked recently by the editors of The Caterpillar, a literary magazine for children out of Ireland, if they could use two of my drawings to accompany some poems.
The Caterpillar is the “little sister” publication of The Moth, an arts & literature magazine for adults.
It’s fun to see stuff published! 😉
