Just what makes that little old ant
Think he’ll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can’t
Move a rubber tree plant
But he’s got high hopes
He’s got high hopes
He’s got high apple pie
In the sky hopes.
So any time your feelin’ low stead of lettin’ go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant

Here’s a new character for a story that I wrote last month while participating in the 12 x 12 writing challenge. It’s been interesting to do a book design and character that was funny, but still sweet like the story. After wrestling with him for about a week, I think I’ve found him. Now you don’t have to illustrate anything to participate in the 12 x12 challenge.
That’s just what I did with this one, but I am learning a lot about myself as both a writer and an illustrator.
There are eleven more to be written, and I doubt there will be eleven dummy books to go with them…. for now ! :)
Happy Valentines Day
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we’re apart

- And to his jester cried: “Sir Fool,
- Kneel now, and make for us a prayer!”
