...take a peek inside my BOOK!!!!


Dreams really do come true.  

I just can't believe how excited i am!  It's almost here!!!
 Over at Amazon, the LOOK INSIDE feature is now LIVE and available to preview my book coming out in early March.  I am so proud of the way Interweave published my ideas and artwork, it's perfectly true to my vision of what my first book would be.
Here's a link to get you over to Amazon and take a look! 
You can get an idea of the content and style and even pre-order at fantastic discount. 

Thanks so much if you've preordered a copy.  It's going to be a very fun 2014 making lettering art with this as a "workbook".  Details will be posted throughout the year about my "The Art of Whimsical Lettering Book Tour" hopefully coming to a location near YOU!! 

What do you think of the preview???  Let me know! 

So blessed.
